Assembling the Strudel
- On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, lay out the first sheet of phyllo pastry. Brush the edges with melted butter, about 3-4 cm wide around the perimeter, and spread a thin layer of cream over the rest of the surface. Place the next sheet on top and repeat the process. Work quickly as the thin pastry dries out quickly in the air.6 leaf phyllo pastry, 15 g butter
- For the last (sixth) sheet of phyllo pastry, also brush the edges with butter, but instead of frangipane cream, spread the filling in the middle.
- Roll up the strudel. First, fold the short edges of the pastry inward, and then roll up the dough into a log and place it seam-side down. Brush the surface of the pastry with egg wash (a mixture of 1 egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of water) or butter, and then sprinkle the remaining nuts from the filling on top.
- Bake the strudel for 30 minutes in an oven preheated to 180 หC (356 หF).
- Sprinkle the finished pastry with powdered sugar. Serve the strudel warm or cold. Enjoy your meal!60 g powdered sugar
