Austrian Apple Strudel (Apfelstrudel)

By /

Apfelstrudel is one of Austria’s most beloved pastries — paper-thin strudel dough wrapped around a fragrant apple filling with raisins, cinnamon, and breadcrumbs. Whether you make the traditional hand-stretched dough or use ready-made filo, the result is always spectacular. A Viennese café classic!

Ingredients (serves 6-8)

  • 6 sheets of filo pastry (or traditional strudel dough)
  • 6 cooking apples (Bramley or Granny Smith), peeled and thinly sliced
  • 100 g raisins or sultanas
  • 100 g caster sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 50 g toasted breadcrumbs
  • 100 g butter, melted
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Icing sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Mix the apple slices with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, raisins, and lemon zest. Leave to macerate for 15 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F). Butter a baking tray.
  3. Lay a sheet of filo pastry on a clean tea towel, brush with melted butter. Repeat with remaining sheets, layering them on top of each other.
  4. Scatter the breadcrumbs over the pastry, leaving a border.
  5. Arrange the apple mixture along one long edge of the pastry.
  6. Using the tea towel, roll the pastry up around the filling, tucking in the ends. Place seam-side down on the tray.
  7. Brush all over with melted butter.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden and crisp.
  9. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm with cream or vanilla sauce.

🎼 Mahlzeit! Enjoy this Viennese classic warm from the oven.
