I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my strudel turned out soggy. I think I might have added too much liquid to the filling.

This strudel was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more butter or oil to the filling next time.

I'm not a huge fan of apples, but I still enjoyed this strudel. The phyllo dough was very flaky and the filling was sweet and flavorful.

This strudel was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.
