Baked Jam Rolls

- Ready In:
- 45mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Yields:
-
8 Jam Rolls
- Serves:
- 4
ingredients
- 6 ounces self-rising flour (about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups)
- 3 ounces shredded suet (I used 4 tbsp vegetable oil)
- water, to mix
- 5 tablespoons jam
directions
- Preheat oven to 400° or at mark 6. Grease a large ovenproof baking dish.
- To make the suet pastry, mix the flour and suet together in a bowl, and mix in just sufficient cold water to make a firm (but not sticky) dough.
- Roll out the pastry to 1/4-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface to form a strip 8 to 10 inches long. Spread a good layer of jam (warmed, if necessary) over the pastry to within 1/2 to 1 inch of the edges. Moisten the edges of the pastry, roll up carefully from a long side. Pinch the top edge to form a seal. Seal the two ends well too, to prevent jam filling from spilling out during baking.
- Place the jam roll in the baking dish and bake at 400° for about 30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve hot or cold. To serve, cut in slices, and serve with custard.
- Alternatively, the mixture can be rolled up in a floured pudding cloth and steamed for about 2 1/2 to 3 hours to make Jam Roly Poly.

For something so simple, this is a great breakfast item. I used vegetable oil and spread half with grape jelly, the other half with strawberry jam it came out great. After cooling, I topped it with our own Recipe #454978 . This would be great to serve the next morning for your kids sleep over party. Thanks for sharing the recipe. :)

This site used to be awesome. It was at the top of its game when it was called Recipezaar, but that was many years ago. The site was purchased by Scripps and belly-flopped into mediocrity. A few of the faithful members remained, hoping to wait out the storm of corporate nonsense. But alas, it never got better and just continued on its terminal path to nothingness. So most of the loyal members have vanished and made homes at better recipe sites.
