    List of Ingredients




    Apple Strudel


    6 cups apples, tart, sliced
    3/4 cup raisins
    1 lemon, rind of, grated
    3/4 cup sugar
    2 teaspoons cinnamon
    3/4 cup almonds, ground
    8 ounces phyllo pastry, 1/2 box, thawed (also called Filo Pastry)
    1 3/4 cups butter, melted (no margarine)
    1 cup breadcrumbs, finely crushed

    Recipe




    Mix apples with raisins, lemon rind, sugar, cinnamon, and almonds; set aside.

    Place 1 phyllo leaf on a kitchen towel and brush with melted butter.

    Place a second leaf on top and brush with butter again.

    Repeat until 5 leaves have been used, using about 1/2 cup of butter.

    Cook and stir bread crumbs with 1/4 cup of butter until lightly browned.

    Sprinkle 3/4 cup crumbs on the layered phyllo leaves.

    Mound 1/2 of the filling in a 3-inch strip along the narrow end of the phyllo, leaving a 2-inch border.

    Lift towel, using it to roll leaves over apples, jelly roll fashion.

    Brush top of the strudel with butter and sprinkle with 2 tbsp crumbs.

    Repeat the entire procedure for the second strudel.

    Bake the strudels at 400°F for 20 to 25 minutes, until browned.


    NOTE: Frozen phyllo leaves for strudel can be found at most supermarkets in the frozen foods sections.
