1/3 cup | 30g / 1.1oz | Dried cranberries |

Lightly grease an 8- or 9-inch square baking pan.
To prepare dough: combine 1 1/2 cups flour, oats, brown sugar, yeast and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add milk, margarine and egg; beat at medium speed 2 minutes. Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a soft dough that pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
Knead dough on lightly floured surface 5 minutes or until smooth and elastic, lightly sprinkling work surface and hands with flour if dough is sticky. Cover loosely with plastic wrap.
To prepare filling: Combine walnuts, brown sugar, margarine, oats and apple pie spice in small bowl; mix well. Reserve 1/3 cup; set aside. Add apples and cranberries to remaining oat mixture; mix well.
Roll dough into 16- by 8-inch rectangle. Sprinkle apple mixture evenly over dough; press firmly into dough. Starting at long end, roll dough up tightly; pinch seam to seal. Cut dough crosswise into 12 slices. Place slices, cut-side down, in prepared pan. Cover. Let rolls rise in warm place until almost doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine reserved 1/3 cup oat mixture with remaining 1 tablespoon flour; sprinkle evenly over rolls. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool 5 minutes in pan on wire rack. Turn out onto platter. Serve warm.
Yield: 12 rolls.
