Ingredients
- Dough
- 2 cups white self-raising flour
- 1 cup wholemeal flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 40g reduced-fat spread
- ½ cup low-fat plain yoghurt
- water, to form a soft dough
- Filling
- ½ cup cranberry sauce
- 2 cups chopped cooked skinless lean chicken
- 1 medium courgette, thinly sliced
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms
- ½ red onion, finely chopped
- 120g camembert or brie, thinly sliced
Instructions
1 To make dough, place flours and baking powder in a bowl. Add spread and rub into flours until it resembles breadcrumbs (or use a food processor). Stir in yoghurt and enough water to form a soft dough. Knead lightly then roll out lightly to form a large 30cm-diameter circle. Transfer round to a large sheet of baking paper and place on a baking tray.
2 Leaving a 3cm edge, spread dough with cranberry sauce then chicken, courgette, mushrooms and onion. Top with sliced cheese.
3 Fold edge over to filling to form a side. Brush with a little milk and place in oven. Cook for about 15 minutes or until dough and vegetables are cooked and cheese has melted.

HFG tip
Gluten-free pastry
A delicious light scone-style pastry that also works well as a pizza base. Mix 2 cups warm mashed potato with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 egg, 1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder and enough gluten-free flour (approx 1 1/2 cups) to make a firmish dough. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before rolling out. For easy rolling and transfer, roll between layers of plastic wrap.
