Servings: 7
  • 100 g Raisins (or sultanas)
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Obstler
  • 75 g Butter
  • 75 g Breadcrumbs
  • 75 g Sugar
  • 1 package Vanillin sugar
  • 1/2 TEASPOON ground cinnamon
  • 1 package (120 g) strudel dough
  • 500 g sour apples
  • 2-3 TABLESPOONS Lemon juice
  • 7-10 Tbsp grated rind of 1/2 untreated lemon
  • 1-2 TABLESPOONS Icing sugar for dusting
  • baking paper

Directions

  1. 1

    Wash the raisins, dab dry, mix with 2 tablespoons of Obstler and set aside. Melt 30 g butter in a frying pan and stir-fry the breadcrumbs briefly in it. Remove from the pan immediately and let it cool down.

  2. 2

    Mix sugar, vanilla sugar and cinnamon. Take the strudel dough out of the fridge and let it rest in the package at room temperature for about 10 minutes. Melt 45 g butter and let it cool down a little. Wash, peel and quarter apples and remove the core.

  3. 3

    Cut apple quarters into fine slices and mix with lemon juice, grated lemon peel, the sugar mixture and the drained raisins. Place a moistened tea towel on a work surface and cover with a dry cloth.

  4. 4

    Unfold 2 strudel leaves. Place one sheet on the cloths, place the 2nd sheet on top, offset by 90°. Spread some melted butter between the two pastry sheets. Repeat this procedure with the other two strudel sheets.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle strudel leaves with about 1/3 of the butter crumbs. Mix the rest of the crumbs with the apples and spread them on a good half of the strudel dough. Wrap the strudel sheets at the sides and roll up from the coated side using the cloths.

  6. 6

    Place the strudel with the seam side down on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Brush with melted butter and bake in a preheated oven (electric range: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for 25-30 minutes.

  7. 7

    Cut the still warm strudel into pieces, dust with icing sugar and serve with vanilla sauce or whipped cream.
