    List of Ingredients




    6 cups (1.5 L) sliced tart apples
    1/2 cup (125 ml) raisins
    The zest of 1 lemon
    1 cup (250 ml) sugar
    2 tsp (30 ml) ground cinnamon
    1 cup (250 ml) chopped almonds
    10 leafs packaged phyllo dough
    2 cups (500 ml) butter, melted
    1 cup (250 ml) bread crumbs

    Recipe





    Mix together the apples, raisins, lemon zest, sugar, cinnamon, and almonds and set aside. Place a phyllo leaf on a large kitchen towel and brush with butter. Place a second leaf on top of the first and brush with butter. Repeat three more times, making a stack of 5 leaves. Combine the bread crumbs with 1/4 cup (60 ml) butter in a small saucepan and cook over moderate heat until lightly browned. Sprinkle a little less than half the bread crumbs on the buttered phyllo. Place half the apple mixture in a strip about 3 inches (8 cm) wide along the narrow edge of the phyllo. Lift the towel, using it to roll the phyllo around the filling. Use the towel to place the strudel on a greased baking sheet. Brush with butter and sprinkle with about 2 tablespoons of the crumbs. Repeat the entire procedure for the second strudel. Bake in a preheated 400F (180C) oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Makes 2 strudels to serve 10 to 12.
