🧂 Υλικά
- 500 g Butter pastry(such as puff pastry or homemade strudel dough)
- 1 kg Apples(tart varieties like Antonovka, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced)
- 150 g Sugar(brown sugar recommended)

👨🍳 Οδηγίες
- 1
Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2
If using homemade dough, roll it out very thinly on a floured surface. If using store-bought puff pastry, roll it out slightly to fit your baking sheet.
- 3
In a bowl, toss the sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice, breadcrumbs (if using), and raisins (if using). Mix well.
- 4
Spread the apple mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving a small border around the edges.
- 5
Brush the edges of the pastry with melted butter. Roll up the pastry tightly, like a Swiss roll, to enclose the filling. Pinch the seams to seal.
- 6
Place the strudel seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top with melted butter and then with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
- 7
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and crisp, and the apple filling is tender.
- 8
Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Delicious served warm with vanilla sauce, whipped cream, or vanilla ice cream.
