Making phyllo at home is a laborious process, and supermarkets often sell good fresh or frozen phyllo. If you use frozen dough, thaw it overnight before, and don't refreeze -- it will be too brittle.

Number Of Ingredients 10
Steps:
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. Brush a large baking pan with melted butter; set aside. Combine almonds and walnuts in a small bowl; set aside.
- Combine apples, raisins, 2 tablespoons sugar, lemon zest, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Bring 3/4 cup water and cornstarch to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring constantly until thick and smooth. Add 4 remaining tablespoons sugar, and stir until dissolved. Pour over apples. Stir to combine.
- Place a sheet of phyllo on a flat work surface to form a square. Brush with butter. Place a second sheet over the first. Brush with butter. Repeat four times.
- Spread 1/4 cup nuts over bottom third of phyllo in a 1-inch-wide line parallel to and about 3 inches from the edge of pastry. Top with a sheet of phyllo. Brush with butter. Spread half of apple mixture in a 3 1/2-inch-wide line covering the nuts; sprinkle with cinnamon. Top with a sheet of phyllo. Brush with butter. Fold in right and left sides of phyllo about 1 inch. Fold phyllo over once to cover apples. Brush with butter. Roll like a cigar almost to end, brushing all surfaces with butter. Fold in ragged edges, and brush with butter. Finish rolling, and place, seam-side down, in prepared pan.
- Brush with butter. Cut six 1-inch diagonal slits in top of roll. With fingers, slightly widen slits. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling.
- Transfer to oven, and bake until golden, about 10 minutes. Lower heat to 350 degrees. Continue baking until juices are bubbling and apples are tender when pierced with a knife, 30 to 40 minutes more.

[email protected]This strudel was a disaster! The filling was too runny and the crust was too thick. I would not recommend this recipe.
