Nothing fills the home with warmth and a wonderful smell quite like apple strudel. Add vanilla cream to everything and you’re on the trail of a dessert that can’t wait for tomorrow.
To begin with, you need to add activated yeast, beaten egg, sugar and lemon zest to the flour. Melt the butter with the milk and when it is lukewarm, add it to the flour. Knead the dough and leave it in the warm place for two hours.
Filling up
Peel and cut 1 kilogram of apples into small cubes. Transfer them to the pan and add vanilla sugar, brown sugar, raisins, chopped hazelnuts, cloves and a little cinnamon. Then let everything simmer gently, so that the apples release their juice. Then cool it down.
Knead the dough, roll it out into a rectangle and spread the filling in the middle, and cut the sides into strips. Interweave the strips and close the strudel. After that, coat with a little beaten egg, sprinkle with brown sugar and almond leaves.
Bake at 180 °C for 30 – 40 minutes (depending on the oven).
Serve warm with vanilla sauce and/or a scoop of vanilla ice cream
