Ingredients
 

Dough:

  • 1 Egg
  • 150 g Butter
  • 150 g Sugar
  • 1 packet Vanilla sugar - or 4 teaspoons homemade
  • 300 g Flour
  • 1 packet Baking powder
  • Possible
  • Milk

Covering:

  • 500 g Apples, sour
  • 0,25 Lemon juice
  • 1 shot Rum
  • 2 tbsp Pine nuts
  • 3 tbsp Raisins
  • Sugar, depending on the acidity of the apples
  • 1 tsp Cinammon
  • Possible
  • 1 tbsp Breadcrumbs in case the apples draw too much liquid

Aside from that:

  • 1 Egg for brushing
  • Icing sugar for dusting

Instructions
 

Dough:

  • Mix the butter with the egg as well as the sugar and vanilla sugar until frothy.
  • Mix the flour with baking powder and a pinch of salt and knead with the butter-sugar mixture to form a smooth and supple dough. The dough must not be too firm, so add a little milk if necessary.
  • Roll out the dough on a well floured tea towel.

Covering:

  • Peel and core the apples and cut or slice them into thin slices.
  • Mix the apples with the lemon juice and the other topping ingredients and season to taste. If the apples pull a lot of juice, bind it with some breadcrumbs.

Completion:

  • Spread the apple mixture on the middle third of the batter.
  • Using the tea towel, lay about a third of the dough over the apple mixture from bottom to top so that it is covered (can't describe it better, sorry ... maybe it can be seen better in the photos ...).
  • Repeat the process from top to bottom with the other third of the dough.
  • Brush the dough generously with the beaten egg.
  • Tighten the tea towel tightly on the right and left and swing the strudel onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper (there is no photo evidence for this due to the lack of a photographer, because I had both hands full :-))
  • Bake at 170 ° C top / bottom heating for approx. 40 minutes.
  • After baking, dust with powdered sugar and preferably serve warm with (homemade) vanilla ice cream and / or cream.
