4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ cup Melted butter
¼ cup Brown sugar
4 Peeled, cored & sliced
Apples
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
½ cup Raisins
2 tablespoons Flour
5 Sheets of phyllo
Sugar to sprinkle on top
Optional

Directions

Heat 2 tb of melted butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add brown sugar and cook until disolved. Add apple slices,lemon juice, cinnamon and raisins and cook until apple slices are just tender, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle in flour and gently mix until combined. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature.

Layer the 5 phyllo sheets, brushing each layer with melted butter. Complete as follows:

1. Place apple filling 2 inches (5 cm) from bottom edge and 3 inches (8 cm) from both sides.

2. Fold bottom flap and sides over filling. Brush butter on unbuttered sections of phyllo for sealing. Fold top down. Brush top with butter and sprinkle with sugar, if desired.

3. Score top of phyllo with a serrated knife to ease cutting after it is baked. Bake in oven pre-heated to 400 F (200 C) for 20 to 25 minutes or until puffed and golden.

4. Allow strudel to set fro 15 to 20 minutes before sliceing. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
