Apples in pita bread - a simplified version of the preparation of shrudel, an Austrian roll made of thin stretched dough. But such a product is very difficult to prepare on your own, something that many housewives are trying to do to simplify their work in some way. And thin Armenian lavash has become an excellent helper. Due to this, the cooking time is reduced several times, while the result always comes out invariably tasty. Therefore, if you do not like to bother with baking for a long time, while you love strudel, apple desserts and homemade cakes, then this dish is definitely for you.
This roll with apples is prepared in a pan by frying pita bread in vegetable oil. However, if you wish, you can perfectly bake the product in the oven. To do this, simply grease the pita bread with an egg or milk and bake at 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes. The result will also be excellent. Take lavash for this dessert only very thin, then it will be crispy after baking or roasting. I also note that a more dietary dish is obtained in the oven, because in a frying pan, the roll is fried in butter, which adds additional calories.

A step-by-step recipe for making apples in pita bread:
1. Wash the apples, remove the core with the seed box with a special knife and cut into slices about 2 mm thick. Apples recommend using sweet and sour varieties, these are tougher and will not lose their shape when roasted. Sweeter and softer varieties can soften and turn into a puree. Although it will be delicious too.
2. Melt the butter in a skillet. Do not take a lot of it, about 20-30 g will be enough.
3. After put the apples in the pan, add ground cinnamon and sugar.
4. Stir and sauté apples over medium heat.
5. Bring the apples until soft and light golden brown. If they burn strongly, then lower the temperature. To prevent this from happening, take a pan with a thick bottom, the ideal choice is cast iron.
6. Cut the rectangular pita bread into two parts. If you have round pita bread, then you will need 2 pcs. Spread the pita bread on the counter and place the apple filling in the middle.
7. Roll it up in an envelope or tube. Do as you like.
8. In a frying pan, melt another small piece of butter and place the pita bread with the blocks. Fry it over medium heat until golden brown on both sides. It fries very quickly, literally 1 minute on each side. Serve it warm. However, chilled dessert will also be delicious.
