Spread the filling on top, leaving approx. 1 cm free around the edges. Roll the dough up from the long edge, without exerting pressure, cut it into approx. 10 pieces using a bread knife. Spread the swirls out evenly in the prepared tin, cover and leave to rise at room temperature for approx. 30 mins.
