2.Place apple-pie filling, currants, allspice, ginger, brown sugar and 1 egg in a small bowl and mix until well combined. Spread apple mixture over pastry sheets.

3.Roll up each pastry sheet tightly to enclose filling. Cut each roll into four and place on prepared tray. Brush with remaining egg and bake for 30-35 minutes, until golden. Dust with icing sugar to serve.
