I want to share with you a recipe of delicious Apple Strudel with Walnuts & Cinnamon.

I found this recipe few years ago and it become my favorite winter dessert. As in "the right" recipe you have to knead the dough, I decide to cheat and do easier way. We will use bought puff pastry sheets.

Let's start!

Ingredients

  • 2 Puff pastry sheets
  • 3 Green Apples
  • 100g Walnuts
  • 1 tbs Cinnamon
  • 2 tbs Flour
  • 3 tbs Sugar sugar
  • 3 tbs Brown sugar
  • Powdered sugar (for serving)
  • 3-4 tbs Bread crumbs
  • 1 Egg

Apple Filling

Chop apples (I use Granny Smith) in small cubes and mix with:

  • 1 tbsp Cinnamon powder
  • 2 tbsp Flour
  • 3 tbsp Sugar sugar
  • 3 tbsp Brown sugar

Leave it for 15 minutes. Apples will release the juice, and the flour will make it more dense.

Mix Walnuts With Bread Crumbs
