I have a special recipe to share with you. It’s not just a regular apple cake; it’s more like a cake filled with apples, raisins, and nuts, all wrapped in a delicate puff pastry. When you combine all these ingredients, they create a unique and delicious flavor. Apple Strudel Recipe is full of nuts and raisins. That complements the taste of apples and gives it a royal touch. It would be best if you tried it.
My recipe attempts to replicate the classic Czech strudel I enjoyed in Prague.
It’s a taste that stuck with me long after my trip, and I’ve successfully recreated it at home.
How to choose the best ingredients Apple Strudel with Nuts and Raisins
Apples: We choose the sweet wine so that they are not baked in the dough until the end, and they keep their invoice. We chose apples for our apple strudel cake, which is medium-sized and about 15 cm in diameter.
Sugar: This dough contains white sugar. Because no other type of sugar has been used before in the part of Europe from which it comes. However, if you want to reduce its caloric content, you can add sweeteners to the market, e.g., erythritol. It will certainly not change the taste of the dough.
Tips and Tricks for Apple Strudel with Nuts and Raisins
- If we are sure that our apples are not artificially waxed, we can make apple vinegar with the peel and cucumber after the apples.
- If you do not want the dough to get too hot, you can cover it with aluminum foil while baking when you decide that the cake’s color is right.
- I always use a silicone mat to fight the dough, to which the dough does not stick.
