Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) or 170°C fan-assisted, and prepare a small baking tray lined with a sheet of baking parchment.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour and granulated sweetener (if using).
Rub the low-fat spread into the flour mixture using your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Add the skimmed milk to the mixture and gently bring it together to form a soft dough. Be careful not to overmix.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough into a small rectangle about 0.5 cm thick.
Spread the reduced-sugar strawberry jam evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Carefully roll the dough up from one of the shorter ends to create a tight spiral. Pinch the seam to seal.
Wrap the rolled dough in a piece of lightly greased baking parchment, twisting the ends like a Christmas cracker. This will help retain the shape during cooking.
Place the wrapped roll onto the prepared baking tray and pour around 2 tablespoons of water onto the tray to create steam during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes until the roly poly is cooked through and lightly golden.
Unwrap the parchment carefully and serve warm. Enjoy as-is or with a dollop of low-fat custard or yogurt for an indulgent touch!
