For the Apple Strudel

Method

Instructions

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare the Apple Filling

In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Toss well to combine, and set aside.

Prepare the Puff Pastry

Roll out each puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle. Place one sheet on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Fill the Strudel

Spread half of the apple filling down the center of the pastry, leaving about 2 inches on either side. Brush the edges with melted butter.

Roll the Strudel

Carefully fold the sides of the pastry over the filling and roll it up tightly. Seal the ends by pinching the pastry together. Repeat with the second pastry sheet and remaining apple filling.

Bake

Brush the tops of the strudels with melted butter and cut a few slits on top for steam to escape. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.

Prepare the Whipped Cream

While the strudels are baking, whip heavy cream (not listed in ingredients) until soft peaks form. Add sugar to taste and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.

Serve

Once baked, remove the strudels from the oven and let them cool slightly. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm with whipped cream.
