Traditional strudel is prepared with apple filling, but now you can find this pastry with other equally tasty fillings. For example, with peaches, plums, apricots, strawberries, pears, etc. In this recipe we will bake strudel with apple and pear filling. The aroma of baked goods is unobtrusive, but brighter, and the taste is neutral, but richer. Fruits bake well, become tender and soft. Everyone can cook strudel, because the whole procedure is simplified. This pastry is very relevant in the summer, when there is fresh fruit and they can be combined in different variations. In the preparation of this delicacy, there are some secrets that will help make strudel tastier or simplify the work to a minimum.

  • If you want to bake dessert faster, use only pears, as they are softer in structure, from which they bake faster.
  • Before baking, grease the surface of the strudel with butter, then you get a velvety and soft flour layer.
  • To give the baked goods a glossy shine, rich color and golden brown crust, grease them before baking with a traditional lleison made from a mixture of egg yolk and milk or milk cream.
  • To make the dough more tender, add a few tablespoons of cottage cheese to the recipe.
  • Don't have time to knead the dough? Use thin Armenian pita bread or commercial ready-made filo dough. You can also use store-bought puff pastry.
  • If you want to make the filling tastier, caramelize apples and pears in honey or syrup.
