  • 7-10 Tbsp For the filling:
  • 100 g Hazelnut kernels
  • 50 g Butter

  • 100 g Sugar
  • 1 TEASPOON Cinnamon
  • 1 kg sour apples (e.g. Boskop)
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Lemoncurd
  • 7-10 Tbsp Besides:
  • 75 g Butter
  • 7-10 Tbsp Icing sugar

Directions

  1. 1

    Knead 250 g flour, 1 pinch of salt, egg, 2 tablespoons of oil and approx. 100 ml lukewarm water with the dough hooks of the mixer to a smooth dough. Then knead vigorously with your hands for about 5 minutes, hitting the work surface several times. During the dough tension test the dough must stretch without tearing immediately.

  2. 2

    Shape the dough into a ball, brush with oil, cover and let rest for about 30 minutes. While the dough is resting, preheat the oven (electric oven: 200 °C/circulating air: 180 °C/gas: see manufacturer).

  3. 3

    Roll out the dough on a floured work surface to about half the size of a tea towel (approx. 47 x 50 cm).

  4. 4

    Dust the tea towel with flour. Pick up the dough and pull it out thinly all around with floured backs of your hands (in the size of the cloth).

  5. 5

    For the filling, chop 100 g hazelnut kernels, roast them in a pan without fat and take them out. Melt 50 g butter in the hot pan and roast 100 g breadcrumbs in it while stirring. Stir in 100 g sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon, take out. Peel 1 kg sour apples (e.g. Boskop), quarter, core and cut into slices. Mix in 2 tbsp. lemon curd and nuts.

  6. 6

    Next step: The merger! For this, melt 75 g butter in a pot, spread the dough thinly with butter. Spread crumbs and apple mixture one after the other on one half of the dough, leaving about 1.5 cm of edge free.

  7. 7

    Wrap the sides over the filling and roll up loosely from the shorter side using the cloth, then place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Remove the cloth, making sure that the end is at the bottom.

  8. 8

    Brush the strudel with some butter and bake for about 35 minutes. Remove, immediately brush with remaining butter and let cool for about 30 minutes. Dust with some icing sugar.
