ingredients
- 1 batch puff pastry (#451679 or store bought-use 2 sheets)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups fruit (be creative, use seasonal)
- 1⁄2 cup brown sugar (white could be used if better with that fruit)
- 1 teaspoon orange zest (lemon or lime good)
- 1⁄4 cup nuts (walnuts, pecans, almonds, pistachio, etc)
-
Glaze
- 3⁄4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1⁄4 teaspoon vanilla extract
directions
- Melt butter over medium heat. Add fruit and cook until tender. When almost done, add sugar, zest and nuts. Stir until sugar has melted, glazing the fruit.
- Use your imagination to further spice it.
-
Assembly:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- On floured surface roll 1/2 the puff pastry (or get it, thawed, out of the package) and place a sheet of puff pastry on a silpat lined sheet (no silpat -grease it).
- Along each side of the pastry, make angled slits 1 inch apart from the edge to 1/2 inch less than 1/3 the way across.
- Spread half the fruit mixture down the center. Fold the cut sides over the top in a criss cross pattern. Pinch the end closed with a fork.
- Repeat to make a 2nd strudel.
- Bake 20-30 minutes, or until golden.
-
Glaze:
- Combine glaze ingredients and whisk to blend. If you want it thinner, add milk by .5 tsp fulls.
- Drizzle over the warm strudel.
