Ingredients

1/4 cup golden brown sugar
1/4 cup cranberries or 1/4 cup raisins
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 medium granny smith apples, peeled and cut into 3/4 inch pieces

4 teaspoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons sugar
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

Bake 15 minutes or until phyllo is browned and apple juices begin to sizzle.

Tips:

Use fresh, crisp apples for the best flavor and texture. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good choices.
Peel and core the apples before slicing them. This will make them easier to work with and help them cook evenly.
Slice the apples thinly. This will help them cook quickly and evenly.
Toss the apples with sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. This will help them caramelize and develop a delicious flavor.
Use melted butter to brush the phyllo dough. This will help it crisp up and brown in the oven.
Bake the strudel until the phyllo dough is golden brown and the apples are tender. This will take about 30 minutes.
Let the strudel cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help it hold its shape.
