    Keep this recipe for cold days! Everone loves it, and in South Africa it is a traditional favourite. You must have this at hand, as it is easy and quick and a delight, served as is or with ice cream or custard. Please note that I did two step-by-step photographs, which you'll find if you click on photos . One shows how to roll up the dough, and the 2nd what the pudding and sauce look like before going into the oven.

    South African Roly-Poly Baked Dessert, Keep this recipe for cold days! Everone loves it, and in South Africa it is a traditional favourite You must have this at hand, as it is easy and quick and a delight, served as is or with ice cream or custard Please note that I did two step-by-step photographs, which you’ll find if you click on photos One shows how to roll up the dough, and the 2nd what the pudding and sauce look like before going into the oven , I tried this recipe last night absolutely delicious and the best I ever made I tweaked it a bit – added to the jam, grated zest of 1 orange and a handful of currants; replaced 1/2 cup water with orange juice To the left over sauce I added 60 ml brandy and poured that over when baked ??

    Steps

    1
    Done

    Preheat Oven to 350 Deg F/180 Deg Celsius.

    2
    Done

    Grease a Suitable Oven Dish, Like a Rectangular Pyrex Dish.

    3
    Done

    Mix the Flour, Baking Powder and Salt, and Rub in the Butter. (can Be Done in a Processor, Also the Next Step).

    4
    Done

    Add the Beaten Eggs, and Then Just Enough Milk, Tablespoon by Tablespoon, to Make a Fairly Firm Dough.

    5
    Done

    It's Easy to Watch in the Processor: as Soon as a Firm Ball Forms Which Is not Sticky, but Soft, the Dough Is Ready.

    6
    Done

    Roll the Dough Out Quite Thinly -- on a Surface Sprinkled With Flour -- and Form a Rectangle, by Cutting Off Bits and Adding It on Again -- You Know How.

    7
    Done

    Spread the Dough With Apricot Jam.

    8
    Done

    from One of the Long Sides, Roll It Up Like a Swiss Roll.

    9
    Done

    Cut This Roll Into 1 Inch Slices, Using a Serrated Knife Such as a Bread Knife. the Jam Will Ooze Out.

    10
    Done

    Pack the Slices, Cut Sides Up, Closely Together, in the Greased Dish. Scoop the Jam Which Oozed Out on the Surface You Used, and Just Plonk Back on to These Rolls.

    11
    Done

    in a Pot, Mix the Boiling Water (from Your Kettle), Sugar, Butter and Vanilla and Stir Until Sugar Dissolves.

    12
    Done

    With a Tablespoon, Ladle Evenly Over the Slices of Pudding, but Beware: You Will Have More Sauce Than the Baking Dish Can Take. Usually You'll Be Left With About 3/4 Cup. Keep It.

    13
    Done

    Bake For About 40 - 45 Minutes.

    14
    Done

    When the Sizzling Pudding Comes Out of the Oven, Carefully Pour the Extra Sauce Over the Centre Slices: I Find That, When Baking, the Sauce Tends to Pool on the Sides.

    15
    Done

    Now the Hot Pudding Will Absorb Much of the Leftover Sauce in Seconds. Use as Much or as Little as You Like.
