  2. Peel, core and finely dice the apples and mix in a bowl with the rind, chopped apricots, breadcrumbs and 45ml (3tbsp) demerara sugar.
  3. Place 2 large sheets of filo pastry slightly overlapping each other on a large greased baking sheet. Brush with melted low-fat spread and place 2 more sheets on top. Repeat with 2 more sheets of pastry (6 in total).
