Joulutorttu (Christmas pinwheels)

(Makes 10 at 8 p each)

• 100g sultanas
• 2 tbsp marmalade
• 100g butter
• 200g flour
• 2 tsp cinnamon

Step 1
Pop the fruit into a saucepan with the marmalade (or honey) and half-cover with water.

Step 2
Boil and then reduce to a simmer to stew away while you make easy pastry.

Step 3
Melt and stir the butter.

Step 4
Add it to the flour with the cinnamon.

Step 5
Mix to form a breadcrumb mixture.

Step 6
Add 4 tbsp of cold water and mix in for your dough; it should hold together, but not be sticky.

Step 7
If it is a little dry, add an extra tablespoon of water; if it is sticky, pat a handful of flour around it.

Step 8
Flour the work surface and knead the dough lightly for a couple of minutes to bring it together.

Step 9
Break it in half, and roll out to around 3mm thick.

Step 10
As you cut them, transfer the squares to a lightly greased baking tray, leaving half centimetre spaces.

Step 11
Dollop a teaspoon of stewed fruit in each centre.

Step 12
Then cut from the corner to the centre, stopping at the fruit.

Step 13
Fold each corner into the centre, for your pinwheel, pressing the last two down with a little water to hold.

Step 14
Bake in the centre of the oven for 18 minutes at 180C/gas mark 4 and dust with icing sugar before serving (brush with a beaten egg if you like a nice glaze).
