Ingredients
- 1/2 c. sugar plus
- 2 Tbsp. sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 12 sht filo
- 1/2 c. butter or possibly margarine melted
- 10 x apples - (to 12, abt 2 1/2 to 3 lbs) peeled, sliced Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1/4 c. golden brown raisins plumped in
- 1/2 c. warm water and then liquid removed
- 1/2 c. pitted sour cherries liquid removed
- 1 Tbsp. cornstarch
- 1 Tbsp. flour Powdered sugar for dusting
Directions
- Mix together 2 Tbsp. sugar and 1 tsp. cinnamon. Set aside. Lay out filo sheets and cover with lightly damp towel. Brush bottom of 10-inch springform pan with melted butter.
- Brush 1 sheet of filo with butter, sprinkle with some of cinnamon-sugar mix and press into pan, allowing sides to drape over. Repeat with 4 more sheets.
- Toss apples with remaining 1/2 c. sugar, lemon juice, raisins, cherries, remaining 1 tsp. cinnamon, cornstarch and flour. Spoon apples into springform pan and arrange so fruit filling is flush with top of pan. Pat filling down slightly. There should be sufficient apples to mound slightly over top of springform pan.
- Fold overlapping ends of filo over apples. Brush another filo sheet with melted butter, sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar and lay buttered-side up on top of apples. Repeat with 1 more sheet. Mix in excess.
- Cut remaining sheets into 3 circles exactly size of pan. Brush each with butter and gently place on top of apples. (Top layer should have been brushed with melted butter as well so top will brown). Make small cuts in pastry through to apples to allow steam to escape.
- Place strudel on baking sheet to catch any drippings and set on lowest rack of 375 degree oven. Immediately reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake till pastry puffs up and apples begin to give off juices, 55 min to 1 hour. Cover loosely with foil if it starts to get too brown.
- This recipe yields 8 to 10 servings.
