Preparation
- Peel and dice apples and put them in a large bowl. Set apple peel aside for decoration, if desired.
- Add lemon juice, sugar, and almonds, and mix.
- Roll out half of the puff pastry until thin, and cut into three even, long slices. Coat the slices with cream.
- Spread half the apple mixture on all three slices, covering three quarters and leaving about an inch (2 ½ cm) empty at the sides.
- Brush all the edges except the bottom one with water.
- Roll the dough over the apple mixture from bottom to top, until you have even rolls. Pinch the sides of the rolls to seal them with dough.
- Cut rolls in the middle and transfer with the closed side down into a greased muffin pan. Repeat with second half of puff pastry and apple mixture until you have 12 strudels.
- Mix vanilla powder with half of the milk described in package, usually 1 ½ cups (355 ml).
- Pour 2-3 tablespoons into each strudel.
- Spread egg wash over strudels.
- Bake at 400˚F(200˚C) for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.
- Take strudels out of the pan and dust with powdered sugar. The leftover apple peel can be rolled into “roses” for decoration.
- Enjoy!
