I'm a fan of anything with apples, raisins and cinnamon and this recipe is no exception.
Ingredients
Makes 1 serving
- 2 large gala apples, peeled, cored and cubed
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 cup raisins
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 egg, beaten
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 450F.
In a medium bowl, toss the cubed apples and raisins with the lemon juice, brown sugar and cinnamon until they are coated. Set aside.
Lightly dust the counter and a rolling pin with flour. Gently roll the puff pastry to about 1/8-inch thickness. With a knife make diagonal cuts along each side of the pastry about 1 inch apart and almost to the middle. You'll have it right when the pastry looks like it has half a dozen legs :)
Brush the pastry with egg. Spread the apple and raisin mixture in the middle of the puff pastry (where you didn't cut). Then fold over the pastry (legs) to make a braid along the top of the apple & raisin mixture. Trim the ends and tuck them up. Pinch to seal the edges.
Brush the entire strudel with more egg.
Place the strudel on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes, until the pastry is all puffy and golden brown.
