Laura Vitale Makes Apple Strudel

[@2012meandmyself]

Hi everybody, short input. Apfelstrudel is actually a dish from Austria not from Germany 😉 and we use a mixture between filo and puff pastry but no matter what you use, it is said that the pastry should be thin enough for you to be able to read a newspaper through it 👍traditionally it is made with flour, oil and water. Also we mostly use breadcrumbs in the filling instead of cornstarch to soak up the jucie of the apples, and there is a big debate whether an apfelstrudel needs raisins or not 🤷🏼‍♀️ Anyway, greetings from 🇦🇹

[@youllthinkofme2011]

raisin are a yes for me. And maybe a few more spices?

[@dansgsds]

Rasins and Apple go perfect together

[@trishmaloney5674]

This! My family is from north Italy in Friuli Venezia Giulia, which has lots of Austrian influence, and that is exactly how it is made there

Hi dear Laura! Greetings from Germany :) We do make our Strudel with a different kind of Dough, you are right. You can compare it to a filo/yufka dough as its paper thin and the way the dough gets pulled to be so thin is also similar to how the greeks pull their filo :) i think the only difference is, that we pull the dough in a long rectangle on a kitchentowel, put the apple filling on it and roll it up with the help of the kitchentowel as the dough is to thin and delicate and would rip otherwise. it gets rolled in the retangle so that you end up with around 4 layers of dough :) so of my other german people, please correct me if i'm wrong, but thats how i know it as a pastry chef from cologne :)

[@rosaschluepper]

Oh Lisa 👌👌👌👌👌

[@ivagrosic4211]

Croatia here 😊 We do it this way too. The dough we use is called "pulled dough". Because we pull it to make it paper thin. It is pretty soft dough. I have to ask my mom how it's made.

[@specialk4107]

My family is from Germany and what I remember about the Strudel they made is the pastry was thin and layered. It wasn't extremely sweet at all. It did have a very delicate sweetness to it, but not like the way desserts are sweetened in America. There were raisins in it too.

[@jesusgamboa9899]

@@specialk4107 unfortunately some of the desserts that we make here in the States have an excess amount of sugar that it overpowers the palate.

[@BayShore2001]

Yes I believe you are correct. The dough to my Oma's strudel was very much like that. Sadly she passed away and that wonderful recipe is lost.

[@SweetSugar91]

I'm from Austria and yes we're using "Strudel Dough" it's different than puff pastry.

[@missKikica]

In Austria we use "Strudelteig" as pastry, its 250g of flour, 1 tablespoon Oil, a pinch of salt and about 125ml water - kneed everything together, let it rest for 30 minutes, afterwards you pull the dough instead of rolling it out and we say "the dough has to be thin enough so that you can read a newspaper through it"

The best apple strudel I ever had was in a cafe in a small village in N.W. Schwartzwald~ served with superb vanilla ice cream, and coffee.

[@marjoried.9277]

Ive made this several times, it is easy and delicious.

[@juliekostas7322]

I've been waiting for this--- I love learning to cook from Laura as I've always been able to replicate her recipes successfully. Her channel is such a confidence booster to the aspiring home cook.

[@davidkoch7045]

Hi, I am from Germany and quickly checked some strudel dough recipes online. The majority uses flour, oil (or butter) pinch of salt and water for the Strudel dough no matter of they come from Germany or Austria

[@RTMoney]

The second bite tho... just someone genuinely enjoying a fresh pastry. Superb job, Laura. 😋

[@jacklynstclair8267]

Yay fall desserts

[@BayShore2001]

It may not be "authentic" when it comes to the dough but who cares, it looks amazing! Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe. My hubby's birthday is coming up next month and I've decided to make this for his breakfast. Love all of your videos and recipes, you're an excellent cook.

[@rickz5577]

She makes it look easy and it looks great. I wish I could try her strudel.

[@kosmosbjm]

I always cook apples on the stove anyway, then save for desserts in the refrigerator. I’m making Laura’s recipe right now adding the pastry, so it should turn out yummy. I’ll also make it for Thanksgiving next week.

[@1stepcl0ser]

thanks for doing it without raisins haha!! also, we do not use a glaze on applestrudel! sometimes it is served with whipped cream and/or hot vanilla sauce

[@jesusgamboa9899]

I usually make my strudel with filo dough instead of puff pastry because it is much closer to the Austrian/Hungarian (where my grandmother is from) version of strudel. Using homemade strudel dough will always be the best choice, but it is time consuming and intimidating to prepare. I personally don't like making strudel with puff pastry because the dough is a little too thick for my preference. The consistency of the puff pastry version is much closer to the Turnovers that we make here in the U.S. I like Turnovers, but they are not the same as a Strudel. There are some versions of strudel that use yeast dough like in some of the Czech bakeries in Texas or the nut/poppy seed rolls that are made throughout the nations of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. I am very fond of Mákos Bejgli.

[@jesusgamboa9899]

Also, Laura did request some info on the Strudel dough that is used in Germany and Austria. Could anyone please share their recipes on how to make it as well as any tips that will help prevent the dough from breaking or drying out? TIA

[@IMACTED]

Mákos beigli is not a version of strudel, it is a puppy seed roll

You can tell this is your passion You speak about eating and enjoying each bite on a different level then most other utube chefs Just curious if your a Taurus ♉️?

just made it with puff pastry and its awsome every time!

[@74betty]

How many sheets of puff pastry do u roll out. I bought a pack and it has like 20 sheets

[@concepcionborruel6488]

Thank you learned something new today from you, no spillage of liquids in your technique.😊😊😊.

[@dolphinwahine]

i love like to try this with peach instead of apple

[@fransparano1177]

I made it today Laura and it was so good. Thank you for this easy recipe

[@hecklepig]

Technically that's a apple turn-over. Strudel dough is extremely thin, almost like a filo pastry and the apples are wrapped into it with lashings of butter to make it light and crisp.

[@jincyk9153]

Looks comforting & delicious. Can't wait to try this!

[@BakeALegAndLetsDigIt]

Wow this looks so delicious Laura 😋 I love homemade apple anything.Thank you for sharing your fall dessert. Love and hugs from Pennsylvania Sincerly Melody

[@marthahalford5771]

I’m trying to find the ingredients and measurements in your page but I can’t 😮

[@AlmightyAphrodite]

Looking good! 🤤 Officially (or originally) it's apfelstrudel. If you want an easy version, Aldi has one in the freezer section ready to be baked at home. (At least in Germany and in the Netherlands) and it's very close to 'made from scratch' and absolutely delicious imo 👌👌

[@mk-ty7fy]

Yes Aldi does sells it, when I start to read the ingredients on that strudel I don't want to buy it..

[@Natalie-health-wellness]

Can this be prepared the night before and cooked the next day

[@barbaraanderson3532]

Why aren’t there any measurements? A little butter, a little brown sugar??

[@natalijaparadiso7566]

Love fall recipes, anything apple 🍎 I absolutely love ❤️

[@SaiedahLuna]

This looks awesome! I totally hear you on the crunchy apple dessert thing. One time I got a slice of apple pie from a bakery and the apples were still kinda hard. It was the first time that happened to me and it was extremely disappointing.

[@1stepcl0ser]

it is nooooot from germany!! i know everyone loves to forget about austria and thinks germany stands for all, but nope, thats not true :) also not only germans who speak german. anyway, thanks for the great recipe!! we use strudel dough which is much better!
