Make ceratin to use a good quality apple pie filling, I use E.D.Smith brand for this, it really makes a difference in the taste. This makes two strudels, you can cut the recipe in half and use just one puff pastry sheet and one can pie filling. This takes much less time to make than your traditional strudel version, but I think it is just as good! Prep time includes 40 minutes pastry thawing time.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the apples. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Be sure to add the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg to the apples before wrapping them in the strudel dough. This will help to flavor the apples and make them more delicious.
  • When rolling the strudel, be sure to tuck in the ends of the dough to prevent the filling from leaking out.
  • Bake the strudel at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit for the remaining 30 minutes of baking. This will help to cook the apples through without overcooking the crust.
  • Let the strudel cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help to prevent the filling from running out.
  • Serve the strudel with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream for a delicious dessert.

Conclusion:

Apple strudel is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its flaky crust, sweet apples, and warm spices, apple strudel is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
