Time 3h

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 ½ cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup warm water
2 cups poppy seeds
¾ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup butter, melted
9 apples - peeled, cored and diced
¾ cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, egg and water and stir vigorously until mixture forms a dough. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead 10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest 1 hour.
  • Grind poppy seeds in a food processor or spice grinder, if desired. Combine poppy seeds, sugar, and cinnamon in a medium bowl and mix well; set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Place the dough on a large work surface covered with a clean cotton sheet. Stretch the dough slightly to form a large rectangle. Pour the melted butter over the dough to moisten. Carefully stretch the dough into a large rectangle as big as your work surface will allow. The dough should be very thin and translucent.
  • Sprinkle the poppy seed mixture evenly over the stretched dough. Distribute the apples evenly over the poppy seed mixture. Sprinkle with about one half of the cream. Roll each side of the dough carefully to the middle and fold the ends under the strudel. Cut the strudel in half and place the two halves side by side in the prepared dish. Sprinkle with the remaining cream.
  • Bake in preheated oven until pastry is golden brown, about 1 hour. Allow to cool before slicing.

This strudel was a bit too complicated for me. I would recommend using a simpler recipe for beginners.

The strudel was delicious, but it was a bit too dry. I would recommend adding a little more butter to the filo pastry next time.

This strudel was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the apple filling next time.

This strudel was amazing! I've never had anything like it before. The apple filling was perfectly balanced, and the filo pastry was flaky and crispy. I'll definitely be making this again.

The strudel was delicious! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of apple. I used Granny Smith apples, which were a bit too tart for my taste.
