Silesian apple strudel

Ingredients for 1 servings:

• 300 g flour
• 100 g butter, liquid
• 3 eggs
• 3 tbsp water, hot
• 10 large apples
• 100 g raisins
• Rum, to taste
• 4 tbsp sugar
• 2 tsp cinnamon powder
• Powdered sugar, as needed

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Total time approx. 1 hour 30 minutes

If you like, you can soak the raisins in rum, but it’s not necessary. Mix flour, eggs, butter, and water (adding a tablespoon at a time) into a soft, pliable dough. Shape the dough into a ball and place it on a small plate. Heat water in a saucepan, then pour out the water and place the hot pan over the plate with the dough. Let the dough rest for 15 minutes. In the meantime, wash, peel, core, and very finely slice the apples. Form the dough into a roll and cut it into 3 pieces. Roll each piece very thinly into a rectangle and top with apple slices and raisins. Mix the sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over the dough. Carefully roll up the dough and place all 3 rolls, leaving some space between them, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 175°C for about 45 minutes. Sprinkle the strudel with powdered sugar before serving. They can be served warm with vanilla ice cream or cold with coffee.
