Description
Using prepared puff pastry makes baking this apple strudel a little easier and quicker than some of the more ‘traditional’ recipes! You can serve this hot or cold. It’s delicious topped with cream!
Ingredients
- flour for dusting
- 1 (17.5 ounce) package frozen puff pastry sheets (2 sheets), thawed
- water, as needed
- 6 small tart apples – peeled, cored, and sliced thinly
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- ¼ cup toasted slivered almonds
- ¼ cup butterscotch chips
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon white sugar
Instructions
- Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly dust a working surface with flour. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On your prepared work surface
- join the two sheets of puff pastry by their short edges to make a long rectangle. Brush water along edges and press down gently with fingertips to seal.
- Mix the apple slices
- cinnamon
- brown sugar
- almonds
- and butterscotch chips together in a bowl until evenly combined; spoon the mixture onto one of the long edges of the pastry. Fold one side of pastry over the mixture and roll into a long strudel. Make sure to seal at both ends. Brush pastry with melted butter; make two-inch diagonal slits the length of the strudel with a sharp knife. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Sprinkle the sugar over the top of the strudel and return to oven until the pasty is golden brown and flaky
- another 15 to 20 minutes.
