Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 large Golden Delicious apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1/8 to 1/4-inch thick
1 lemon, juiced
1 cup raisins
1/4 cup sugar, plus 3 tablespoons
2 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces, plus 2 tablespoons butter, melted
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.

  • Lightly dust the counter or work surface with flour. Lay the puff pastry on top and dust the rolling pin with additional flour. Gently roll the puff pastry to 1/8-inch thickness.

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples that hold their shape well when cooked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Peel and core the apples thinly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Add some spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom are classic apple strudel spices, but you can also experiment with other flavors like ginger, cloves, or allspice.
  • Don't overfill the strudel: The filling should be packed tightly, but not so much that it bursts out of the pastry.
  • Brush the strudel with egg wash before baking: This will give it a golden brown crust.
  • Let the strudel cool slightly before slicing: This will help it hold its shape.

Conclusion:

Apple strudel is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With its flaky pastry, sweet and tart apples, and warm spices, apple strudel is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
