How to Make Apple Streudel

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup granulated sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Gradually add ¼ cup ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll it into a 12x18 inch rectangle.
  5. Peel, core, and thinly slice 4-5 medium apples (about 4 cups).
  6. In a small bowl, toss the apples with 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and a pinch of nutmeg.
  7. Spread the apple mixture evenly over the dough rectangle.
  8. Starting from one of the long sides, tightly roll the dough into a log.
  9. Place the strudel seam-down in a greased baking sheet.
  10. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 2 tablespoons of sour cream.
  11. Brush the egg wash over the strudel.
  12. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
  13. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional).
