Apples, raisins and cinnamon when combined, makes one of the tastiest combinations and we wanted to share with you our quick and easy strudel recipe to show all these delicious flavours! A soft yummy centre full of fruit, wrapped in flaky, crispy, buttery puff pastry. What more could you want? 😉
Ingredients needed:
-4 apples (green cooking apples are best but you can use any) - peeled, cored, and chopped in small chunks.
-75g raisins
-100g caster sugar
-2 tsp ground cinnamon
-1 tbsp self-raising flour
-1 pack frozen puff pastry- defrosted- ready to be rolled
-1 egg, lightly beaten
-1 tbsp sugar of your choice for sprinkling at the top.
Method:
1. Start off by preheating the oven to 200C/400F.
2. Then in a large bowl, combine the apples, 100g sugar, raisins, and cinnamon and mixed well.
3. Next on a clean flat surface, dust a little flour and roll out the puff pastry. Then spoon out the filling into the centre of the puff pastry and roll into a log. Now slit cuts into the pastry- approximately 2cm apart vertically along the whole pastry. Finally, brush with egg and sprinkle with sugar.
4. Place on a baking tray (or our pizza stone to get a nice even crisp bake) and bake in the oven (for approximately 25-30 minutes until the apple strudel is puffed up and golden brown!
