Ingredients
    For the Apple Strudel mixture
  • 5 medium granny smith apples
  • 3/4 cup sultanas
  • 2 puff pastry sheets
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 tbsp corn starch
  • 2 tsp cinnamon powder
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 5 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • For the egg wash
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • For the Cinnamon Sugar
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 4 tbsp granulated sugar
Instructions
  1. 1

    Start by peeling the apples fully and cutting them into small cubes. Add the cinnamon, salt, lemon juice and butter, and put on the fire for about 5 – 8 minutes until all ingredients have melted and combined together into a mixture.

  2. 2

    When the mixture softens and becomes a jam-based texture, add the sultanas and mix. Mix together the cornstarch and water to make into a paste and add onto the mixture. Put on low heat to cook altogether for about a minute.

  3. 3

    Open each puff pastry sheet and cut into 6 equal sizes.

  4. 4

    Put 1 – 2 tablespoons of mixture on one side and fold the pastry sheet over.

  5. 5

    Close the edges by pressing with your finger then create dips around the edges using a fork. Press the puff pastry slightly so that when it cooks it doesn’t puff up too much.

  6. 6

    Mix the milk with the egg yolk and brush on top of the puff pastry. Using a knife, create 3 little cuts on top of the pastry to allow air to get through and for the apple strudel to cook really well.

  7. 7

    Then, mix the cinnamon powder with white sugar to make cinnamon sugar, and sprinkle on top of each pastry.

  8. 8

    Pop in the oven for 30 minutes until they puff up slightly and become flaky and golden.

  9. 9

    Serve and enjoy 🙂
