This simple roll-up incorporates the goodness of the Ontario fruits and only you will know how easy it is to make. The dough thaws in fridge overnight. It’s a great after-school snack, lunch box treat or birthday party staple. Use fresh or frozen blueberries but don’t defrost them. Squeeze any extra liquid from shredded apples to prevent the roll-up from becoming soggy.
Preparation Time: 20 minutes
Baking Time: 25 minutes
Serves: 12
Ingredients:
•4 oz (125 g) cream cheese, softened
•1 tbsp (15 mL) each cinnamon and Ontario Honey
•1 tsp (5 mL) grated lemon rind
•1 lb (500 g) frozen whole wheat pizza dough, thawed
•2 cups (500 mL) shredded Ontario Apples, squeezed dry
•2 cups (500 mL) shredded Ontario Zucchini, squeezed dry
•1 cup (250 mL) Ontario Blueberries
Topping:
•1/4 cup (50 mL) Ontario Honey
Preparation:
In small bowl, combine cream cheese, cinnamon, honey and lemon rind until smooth; set aside.
On lightly floured surface, roll out pizza dough to 1/4-inch (5 mm) thick 14- x 12-inch (35 x 30 cm) rectangle. Spread with cream cheese mixture. Top evenly with apples, zucchini and blueberries. Starting at long side, roll up, pressing firmly so dough is snug around filling and gently smoothing roll to even thickness. Cut into 12 pieces. Place, cut side down, in buttered 13- x 9-inch (3.5 L) baking pan. Bake in 450°F (230°C) oven for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
Topping: Drizzle with honey while hot. Serve immediately.
