Apple Strudel

Country

This is one of my favorite recipes during autumn. The aroma of this dessert baking on a cool, crisp day is absolutely wonderful.

SERVINGS: 36

CATEGORY: Dessert

METHOD: Baked

TIME: Prep: 20 min. + chilling Bake: 55 min. + cooling

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cold butter
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • FILLING:
  • 2 cups dry bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 4 medium baking apples, peeled and chopped
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 cup golden raisins
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • Confectioners' sugar, optional

Directions:

In a medium bowl, cut butter into flour until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the sour cream and salt; mix well. Shape the dough into a ball; cover and refrigerate overnight.
    For filling, combine the bread crumbs and butter. Add apples, sugar, raisins, pecans and cinnamon; mix well and set aside. Divide dough into thirds; turn onto a floured surface. Roll each into a 15-in. x 12-in. rectangle. Spoon filling evenly onto dough; spread to within 1 in. of edges. Roll up from one long side; pinch seams and ends to seal.
    Carefully place each loaf seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 55-60 minutes or until light brown. Cool completely on wire racks. Dust with confectioners' sugar if desired. Yield: 3 loaves.
