  • 100g (3.5 oz) cold butter, diced

  • 50g (1.75 oz) shredded coconut

• For serving:

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) or 180°C (350°F) if using a fan oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the dough:

   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, shredded coconut, and sugar.
   • Add the Hindi Simpal Recipes diced cold butter to the flour mixture. Using your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles breadcrumbs.

3. Roll out the dough:

   • Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1 cm (0.4 inches) thick.
   • Ensure the dough is even and not too thin to prevent tearing.

   • Spread the Marathi Simpale Recipes raspberry jam evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
   • Sprinkle the shredded coconut evenly over the jam.

   • Pinch the ends to seal and place the roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

6. Bake the roly-poly:

   • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the roly-poly is golden brown and cooked through.
   • If the roly-poly starts to brown too quickly, cover it loosely with a piece of aluminum foil.

7. Serve:

   • Allow the roly-poly to cool slightly before slicing.
   • Serve warm with custard or cream, if desired.
