  1. 2
    Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 3
    Cut the dough into strips 5 cm wide.
    Knife
  3. 4
    Spread the margarine over each strip and scatter the filling over it.

  4. 5
    Arrange the apples along each strip, in overlapping slices.
  5. 6
    Roll each strip into a fan-shaped log and arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with beaten flax egg.
