Hello, fellow sweet tooth foodies! I am excited to share with you my newly found recipe that you'll surely love! Nothing says comfort like a warm, freshly baked apple strudel. With its flaky pastry, sweet apple filling, and a hint of cinnamon, this classic dessert is sure to impress. Now, head over to your kitchen, and let's start cooking!

Ingredients:

• Pastry:
  • 1 package (16 oz) phyllo dough, thawed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• Filling:
  • 6 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
• Topping:
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Procedure:

1. Preheat the oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the filling:
   • In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, raisins, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Toss to coat the apples evenly. Set aside.
3. Prepare the phyllo dough:
   • On a clean, dry surface, lay out one sheet of phyllo dough and brush it with melted butter. Layer another sheet of phyllo on top and brush with butter. Repeat this process until you have layered 6 sheets.
4. Assemble the strudel:
   • Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the top layer of phyllo dough. This will help absorb the moisture from the apples. Spread the apple mixture evenly over the breadcrumbs, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts if desired.
5. Roll the strudel:
   • Carefully fold in the short sides of the phyllo dough, then roll up the dough lengthwise to form a log. Place the strudel seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top with melted butter.
6. Bake the strudel:
   • Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
7. Serve:
   • Dust the strudel with powdered sugar before slicing and serving warm.

Indulge in the delightful flavors of our homemade apple strudel, where the perfect balance of sweet apples, warm spices, and flaky pastry will transport you to dessert heaven. Enjoy your strudel with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special treat!

Sprinkling a bit of powdered sugar on top after baking adds a lovely finish. I think it’s a nice touch, though it’s optional!

Apple strudel is a classic! Do you make the pastry from scratch, or use store-bought? Either way, the combination of spiced apples and flaky crust is always a winner!
