1 ¼ pounds sour cherries, pitted
½ cup ground almonds
½ cup sugar
¼ cup fresh bread crumbs
¼ teaspoon cinnamon

Pastry:
8 sheets phyllo dough
½ cup butter, melted
¼ cup granulated sugar

Recipe



Preheat oven to 375° F.
In a bowl, combine cherries, almonds, sugar, bread crumbs and cinnamon. Reserve.
Lay phyllo dough on counter and cover with a tea towel. Remove first sheet, brush with butter. Combine sugar and almonds and sprinkle about 1 tablespoons over butter. Top with second sheet of phyllo, butter and sprinkle with the sugar-almond mixture. Repeat with remaining sheets. Place cherry mixture about 2 inches from the long edge and 1 inch from the short edge. Fold in short sides and roll phyllo into strudel shape. Brush with butter and cut 3 slits on top.
Bake for 20 minutes or until top is browned and cherry mixture is cooked.
