I genuinely meant to brand the pastry from scratch, merely similar they do inwards Austria. I fifty-fifty asked my practiced friend from Vienna how she makes the dough - amongst or without an egg, amongst butter or oil, fleck of saccharide or no saccharide at all... There are a few dissimilar recipes out there. In all of them, 1 time yous knead the dough (no yeast!!), allow it residual for an hour, together with stretch it super sparse using your hands, making a huge, newspaper sparse pastry, that volition move wrapped around the apple tree fillings many fourth dimension around. Delicious!! I genuinely desire to drive it. But sorry, non today. Apparently it's easier if 2 people describe the pastry. This time, it was merely me inwards the kitchen. So perchance adjacent time... anyone around interested?!? :)
In today's recipe, I used frozen puff pastry. And rather than making 1 large strudel to hence cutting inwards slices, I made 6 cute braids.
Start yesteryear toasting the breadcrumbs amongst a fleck of butter together with a dash of cinnamon. Peel, piece together with cutting the apples inwards pieces ... this is genuinely the most time-consuming purpose of the whole recipe! Mix the apple tree pieces, amongst a fleck of lemon, saccharide together with raisins. Stretch the puff pastry together with cutting inwards 6 parts. You tin come across inwards my video, how slow is to brand the braids:
Piece of cake, right?!?
You tin serve at room temperature, or correct out of the oven Don't forget a scoop of vanilla ice-cream! Heavenly :)
