FIG AND ORANGE PINWHEELS

Preparation time: 15 minutes (plus standing time) | Cooking time: 20 minutes (plus cooling time)

1 3/4 cups dried figs, chopped finely
1/4 cup orange juice
3 cups self-raising flour
20g margarine
1 tablespoon grated orange rind
1 cup skim milk
1/4 cup water, approximately

Combine figs and juice in large bowl; stand for several hours or overnight.

Lightly grease deep 23cm round cake pan; line base with baking paper.

Sift flour into bowl; rub in margarine. Stir in rind and milk with enough of the water to mix to a firm dough; knead on lightly floured surface until smooth. Roll dough to 20cm x 40cm rectangle. Sprinkle fig mixture evenly over dough. Roll up dough from long side; cut into 12 slices.

Place slices in prepared pan; bake in 450°F oven for about 20 minutes or until cooked through. Stand for 5 minutes before turning onto wire rack to cool.

Makes 12.
