May 2009 Daring Bakers Challenge - Apple Strudel

Apple Streusal

Oh my gosh, you guys! I think I can honestly say that this apple strudel was my most favorite recipe I have made since I started the blog! (I know I say that a lot, but I think I'm for real this time!)

The May Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Linda of make life sweeter! and Courtney of Coco Cooks. They chose Apple Strudel from the recipe book Kaffeehaus: Exquisite Desserts from the Classic Cafés of Vienna, Budapest and Prague by Rick Rodgers.

I was very intimidated by the idea of this but after reading the recipe and making it...I felt like it was one of the most simple desserts I've made. You just have to give the dough time and have fun rolling it out and stretching it. Just keep in mind it will take you a good 2 1/2 to 3 hours!

Make sure you see the other streudals and visit The Daring Bakers site.

This was fun, wasn't it?? I had never made strudel before, but it was a lot easier than I expected. Yours looks delicious.
