Yeast strudel

Cookinero 26 Mar 2025

Yeast strudel with apples and nuts is airy, tender and juicy inside. It is better to bake the delicacy from ready-made puff pastry, which can be bought in almost every store today. Classic strudel is made from a special stretched dough, which is very similar in structure to puff pastry. Frozen puff pastry completely retains its properties. The main thing is to defrost it gradually: first on the refrigerator shelf, and then at room temperature. It is better to take sweet apples, then the amount of sugar can be reduced.

How to cook Yeast strudel

Step 1

Prepare the filling. Mix the apples with cinnamon and half the sugar. Leave for 20 minutes to allow the fruit to release its juice. In another bowl, mix the nuts with the breadcrumbs and the other half of the sugar.

Form the strudel. Roll out a thin sheet of defrosted dough, sprinkle it with half of the nut-bread mixture. Put half of the apples on top. Fold the edges of the dough. Then roll it into a roll. Repeat the same with the second sheet of dough and the rest of the filling.

Bake the strudel. Place the strudel on a baking sheet. Brush the top with yolk. Make crosswise cuts on each roll with a knife. Bake at 190 degrees until golden brown for about 30-40 minutes.
