Apple Strudel

Apple Strudel is not apple pie. It is way better. Like apple pie, it is filled with apples, but the filling is much thicker and the spices are much tastier. Also, the pastry of the apple strudel is much better than that used in the apple pie.

Origin

Apple strudel is a European dessert, more than 300 years old. It is popular in most European countries, notably France and Germany.

Filling

What makes the apple strudel so great is its filling. The filling is made of apples mixed with raisins, sugar, and cinnamon.

Pastry

The other characteristic that makes the apple strudel so tasty is the thin pastry. The pastry is so thin, it does not dominate the taste as is the case is apple pies. The taste is dominated by the apples mixed with raisins and cinnamon.
