Delicious Austrian Apple Strudel Recipe

In a bowl, mix the flour, egg, salt, oil, and water until a smooth dough forms.

Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Let rest for 30 minutes covered with a cloth.

While the dough rests, prepare the filling: in a bowl, mix the chopped apples, sugar, cinnamon, raisins, walnuts, and lemon juice.

After resting, roll out the dough with a rolling pin on a floured surface, forming a very thin rectangle.

Place the filling over the dough, leaving the edges free.

Roll the dough carefully, forming a roll, and close the ends.

Brush the egg yolk over the dough to give it color.

Place the strudel on a greased baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 45 minutes or until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing.

Serve warm, accompanied by heavy cream or ice cream, if desired.
