  2. In a pan, combine apples, sultanas, brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice.

  4. Remove from heat and cool the filling fully.
  5. Lay one filo sheet on a clean surface and brush with melted butter. Repeat to layer all sheets.
  6. Spoon filling along one long side, leaving a border at the edges.
  7. Fold in sides and roll tightly into a long log.
  8. Place seam-side down on tray, brush with extra butter, and bake for 25–30 minutes until deep golden.
  9. Cool slightly, dust with icing sugar if using, slice, and serve.

Notes

Let the filling cool before rolling to keep the filo crisp in the oven.

Brush each filo layer with butter so the pastry bakes flaky and golden.

Dust with icing sugar just before serving for a clean finish.
