Rossy Apple Whirls

This was one of my brothers and mine favorite deserts.

Combine in a sauce pan: 1 1/2 cups sugar, 1 1/2 cup water, 1/3 cup cinnamon imperials candies. Bring to a boil stirring constantly then simmer for 5 minutes. Pour into a 12x8x2 inch pan. Reserve 1/2 cup for topping.

Prepare 3 cups peeled, finely cut apples. Set aside.

Sift together 2 cups flour ( I use Bob's Redmill GF mix instead of regular flour) 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum, 1 teaspoon egg replacer, 1/4 cup sugar in a large bowl. Cut in 1/3 cup shortening till mixture resembles coarse meal.
Break 2 eggs into measuring cup add enough milk to make 3/4 cup. Beat with fork to combine. Add to dry ingredients all at once. Stir until dough clings together in a ball.

Knead lightly 12-15 strokes. Roll out to make a 12" square. Spread with 1 tablespoon melted butter. Cover with the apples. Roll up like a jelly roll. Cut into 1 1/2 in slices and place on syrup in pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. Spoon the reserved syrup over biscuits and continue baking 10-15 minutes longer or until golden brown.

Serve warm with half and half or vanilla ice cream

* use a floured towel to roll the dough with the apples makes it easier to roll up.
