- Roll the dough into a large oblong shape, spread filling evenly on top and roll up like a jelly roll.
- Brush top with a little bit of milk or oil.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes.
- If crust begins to brown too much, cover with foil during the last 5 or 10 minutes.
- Cut into 16 slices to serve.
- Note: I have used half the oil in the bread and 13 the oil in the filling with good results.
- Also, salt is really needed in the filling (if you like salt).
