Combine the sugar-flour and apple mixtures. With short side of pastry facing you, spoon filling on pastry and spread to within 2" of short sides and to the edge of the long sides. Starting at the short side, roll like a jelly roll. Cut into 8 (approximately 1 1/2") slices. Place 2" apart on a buttered baking sheet.
