Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• ½ cup chopped walnuts
• ¾ cup white sugar
• ½ cup raisins
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• ½ (17.5 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1 tablespoon white sugar, or to taste
• 4 medium apples - peeled, cored, and chopped

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2

Combine apples, 3/4 cup sugar, raisins, walnuts, and cinnamon in a large bowl for the filling.

Step 3

Dust a flat work surface lightly with flour. Unroll puff pastry and sprinkle lightly with flour. Roll out slightly and mark into 3 equal sections. Spoon filling into the central section then fold over the section on the left and brush with egg. Fold the right section on top, just like a letter. Make shallow diagonal cuts in the top layer of the apple strudel. Brush with egg and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until apple strudel is puffed up and golden, 25 to 30 minutes.
