APPLE DOODLES

Apple Doodles image

Holiday cookies that are apple and cinnamon flavored. The recipe came from a Taste of Home book and made 4 dozen--2 dozen of which I have eaten in the last hour. This definitely has a lot of cinnamon. If you do not like cinnamon, I would skimp on the amount. Mine only took 11 minutes to cook.

Tips:

Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that will hold their shape when baked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
Peel and core the apples: Use a sharp knife to peel and core the apples. If you don't have a corer, you can use a small spoon to scoop out the core.
Slice the apples thinly: Slice the apples into thin, even slices. This will help them cook evenly.
Use a good quality puff pastry: Puff pastry is the key to making delicious apple strudels. Look for a puff pastry that is made with butter, not margarine.
Roll out the puff pastry thinly: Roll out the puff pastry until it is about 1/8 inch thick. This will help it cook evenly.
Spread the apples on the puff pastry: Spread the apples evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Sprinkle the apples with sugar and cinnamon: Sprinkle the apples with sugar and cinnamon to taste.
Fold the puff pastry over the apples: Fold the puff pastry over the apples, starting with the long sides. Fold the ends of the puff pastry under.
Brush the puff pastry with egg wash: Brush the puff pastry with egg wash before baking. This will help it brown and crisp.
Bake the apple strudels: Bake the apple strudels in a preheated oven until they are golden brown and the apples are tender.

Conclusion:

Apple strudels are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that can be enjoyed all year round. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious apple strudel that your family and friends will love.
