Apple Strudel

Your family will enjoy the homemade taste and old-fashioned goodness of this apple strudel made in half the time of the traditional version.

1/2 of a 17.3-ounce package Pepperidge Farm® Puff Pastry Sheets (1 sheet), thawed

1 egg

1 tablespoon water

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced

2 tablespoons raisins

Confectioners' sugar (optional)

  • Heat the oven to 375°F. Beat the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork or whisk. Stir the sugar, flour and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Add the apples and raisins and toss to coat.
  • Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll the pastry sheet into a 16 x 12-inch rectangle. With the short side facing you, spoon the apple mixture onto the bottom half of the pastry sheet to within 1 inch of the edge.  Roll up like a jelly roll.  Place seam-side down onto a baking sheet.  Tuck the ends under to seal.  Brush the pastry with the egg mixture. Cut several slits in the top of the pastry.
  • Bake for 35 minutes or until the strudel is golden brown. Let the strudel cool on the baking sheet on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Sprinkle with the confectioners' sugar, if desired.

RECIPE TIPS

  • Tip: Make sure to toss the apples and raisins until they're evenly coated with the flour mixture. The flour helps to thicken the juices released by the apples as they cook.

    It was absolutely easy! The whole house smells great and the good news is this dessert tastes even better than it looks.

    This dessert looks like it came straight from the bakery in your shopping center. I received raves when my guests ate it. I make it for every holiday and often take it when invited out. We just love it!

    It's a satisfying, professional-looking dessert. It's perfect for using up those last few apples, or pears, etc..
