Categories     Quick fixes     Fruit     Dinner Party     Desserts     Puddings & desserts     Baking

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

4-5 small sweet eating apples
½ lemon, juice of
80 g butter
4 sheets filo pastry
150 g pecan nuts, chopped
ground cinnamon
150 g dark muscovado sugar
60 g caster sugar
1 handful dried cranberries
good-quality vanilla ice cream, to serve

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
  • Peel and slice the apples thinly, and put them in a bowl of cold water with a little lemon juice to stop them going brown. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over a low heat and keep warm.
  • Carefully cut the filo pasty into 30 x 50cm sheets with a knife. Mix the pecans, cinnamon and dark muscovado sugar together.
  • Lay the first sheet of filo pasty on a clean tea towel on your work surface and brush with melted butter. Sprinkle over a third of the pecan mixture. Lay another sheet of filo pastry on top, brush with butter and sprinkle again with a third of the pecan mixture. Repeat with the third sheet and top everything with the fourth sheet.
  • Drain your apples well and toss with the caster sugar and drained cranberries. Spread them out along one edge of the top sheet of filo pastry. Brush the opposite edge with a little water. Starting at the edge with the apple mixture on, gently lift the edge of the tea towel and use it to help you roll the pastry up lengthways like a Swiss roll - the apples will end up at the centre. Once it's all rolled up, press your strudel together gently.
  • Place it on a baking try and bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with some good vanilla ice cream.
  • Try making the strudel with a little ground ginger and cloves for a lovely twist.

1 (14-ounce) can apple pie filling (cut apple slices if large)
1 stick butter
1 sprig sage
3 tablespoons turbinado sugar

  • Cut the phyllo stacks into thirds. Put approximately 1 to 2 tablespoons of apple filling at the tip of the strip closest to you. Fold the phyllo into triangles by repeatedly folding to the right, then up to the left, and repeat until you reach the end of the strip, making sure to keep the shape of a triangle.

APPLE-NUT STRUDEL



Apple-Nut Strudel image

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

10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup finely ground almonds

APPLE STRUDEL



Apple Strudel image

Our simplified version of the classic layered pastry calls for store-bought phyllo dough.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
3 Granny Smith apples
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
1/2 cup dried fine breadcrumbs
6 sheets phyllo dough (roughly 13 by 16 inches), thawed if frozen
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
Lightly sweetened whipped cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl; set aside 3 tablespoons mixture. Peel and core apples; cut into quarters, then cut crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces. Toss with lemon juice; stir into sugar mixture with apricots and breadcrumbs.
  • Brush 1 sheet phyllo with butter, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon reserved sugar mixture. Top with remaining 5 sheets phyllo, layering with butter and sugar mixture. Scatter filling on phyllo, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Starting with a long end, roll up to enclose filling; place strudel, seam side down, on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush top with remaining butter; sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack 10 minutes. Cut into slices; serve warm with whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, crisp apples for the best flavor and texture.
  • Peel and core the apples before slicing them.
  • Slice the apples thinly so that they cook evenly.
  • Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor.
  • Add a little lemon juice to the apples to prevent them from browning.
  • Use a good quality phyllo dough. If the dough is too dry, it will crack and break easily.
  • Brush each sheet of phyllo dough with melted butter or oil before adding the filling.
  • Be careful not to overfill the strudel, or it will be difficult to roll and seal.
  • Bake the strudel at a high temperature so that the phyllo dough gets crispy.
  • Let the strudel cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

Apple pecan phyllo strudel is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky phyllo dough, sweet apples, and crunchy pecans, this strudel is sure to be a hit.
