Hello there my jolly fellows! End of the world? Psht, please, my chocolate expires on 22nd of Nov 2013, so it can't end! Anyway, today is a delicious recipe that is so easy to make, apple strudel! This is a recipe that I can whip up without having to go to the store because most of the time, we have these ingredients ready to be used, so lets begin!
You will need, 2 granny smith apples (Cut the apple into 8 pieces and then quarter them again..... So basically slice it into around 32 slices per apple), 1 lemon (juiced), 1/3 cup of sultanas, 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon, a bit of milk, 1 sheet of puff pastry and 1/3 of a cup of caster sugar.
To begin, preheat you oven to 200 degrees Celsius. In a medium bowl, mix together the apples, cinnamon, lemon, sugar and sultanas and allow to sit for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, roll out the pastry to make it thinner and more of a rectangle shape. This is where it gets a bit tricky, you want to lay the mixture along the long side of the pastry, ensuring it is near the edge but not touching it. Grab what is left of the edge and pull it over the pastry as far as it will go. Continue to roll and tuck in the mixture at the same time until you have a log. Lay the log seam side down on a greased baking tray and cut slits in the top in whatever pattern you want (I just did 5 diagonal strips). Bake in the over for around 20 minutes or until the pastry is cooked and the mixture hot. Serve with ice cream, custard and enjoy!
This dessert went down so quickly that I didn't have time to take any pictures! However, I will have a recipe up tomorrow and until then, keep on cooking!
