Preparation

How to prepare Apple Strudel with Puff Pastry

To prepare the apple strudel with puff pastry, start by soaking the raisins in water for at least 15 minutes 1. In the meantime, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a pan 2 and add the breadcrumbs 3.

Toast it for a couple of minutes over high heat, stirring often 4. Briefly toast the pine nuts in another pan and set everything aside 5. Now peel the apples 6,

cut them into quarters, core them 7, and slice them thinly 8. Transfer the slices to a bowl and squeeze the lemon, straining the juice 9.

Add the pine nuts, soaked and drained raisins 10, brown sugar 11, and cinnamon 12.

Give it a good stir 13 and melt the butter. Unroll the puff pastry on its parchment paper and brush the entire surface with the butter 14. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs, making sure to leave a couple of inches from the edges 15.

Transfer the apples, spreading them out evenly 16, and close it up. Do this by folding the side edges 17 and pressing them firmly to seal and prevent the filling from leaking out 18.

Roll the strudel onto itself with the help of the parchment paper 19. Seal the closure well with your fingers 20, then flip the strudel onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Beat the egg yolk with the milk and brush the surface 21. Score the surface as desired.

Bake in a fan oven at 350°F for about 25 minutes on the lower rack 22. Remove the strudel from the oven, let it cool, and finally dust the surface with powdered sugar to taste 23. Your apple strudel with puff pastry is ready 24.

Storage

You can store the apple strudel with puff pastry in a covered container at room temperature for a couple of days. If you used fresh ingredients, you can also freeze it after baking.

Tip

The apples for the classic strudel are usually Golden Delicious or Renette. Here we chose Pink Lady, but for a quick and 'unofficial' version, you can also choose other sweet varieties.

You can also enrich it with other dried fruits of your choice, replacing the pine nuts with unpeeled hazelnuts or almonds.
