• Lightly dust the counter or work surface with flour. Lay the puff pastry on top and dust the rolling pin with additional flour. Gently roll the puff pastry to 1/8-inch thickness.
• Spread the apple and raisin mixture over the bottom half of the puff pastry square leaving about 1-inch of space along the side edges. Fold the top half of the puff pastry over and pinch to seal the edges together.
• Brush the entire strudel with the melted butter and then sprinkle with cinnamon and remaining sugar. Using a serrated knife, make 3 diagonal slits across the top of the strudel.
• Place the strudel on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes, rotating halfway through cooking, until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil and egg whites, being sure to mix them well.
• Place 1 sheet of phyllo on work surface and lightly brush with the oil-egg white mixture. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon each of sugar, panko, and almonds, then top with another layer of phyllo and repeat the process four times. Place the last sheet of phyllo on top of the sugar mixture and brush it with the with oil-egg white mixture, but do not top with more sugar, panko, and almonds.
• Place the apple mixture on the lower 1/3 of the phyllo stack, being sure to leave a 2-inch border. Gently lift the bottom edge of the phyllo stack to cover the filling, then fold the side edges over. Continue to roll the stack away from you, until the filling is completely sealed in and the seam is on the bottom.
• Transfer to the lined baking sheet, brush the top with the oil-egg white mixture and sprinkle with 1 more tablespoon of sugar. Place in oven and bake for 30 minutes. Let cool before serving.

SIMPLE CINNAMON RAISIN APPLE STRUDEL

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450°F and arrange a rack in the middle. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place apples in a large bowl with raisins. Whisk together sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt in a small bowl until combined. Sprinkle over apples and raisins and toss to evenly coat.
• Arrange a sheet of phyllo on a large, flat surface with the shorter side toward you. Brush with melted butter and arrange another sheet on top. Repeat, alternating butter and phyllo, until there are 6 layers, then brush the top layer with butter.
• Evenly arrange apple-raisin mixture on phyllo, leaving a 1-1/2-inch border at the top and sides. Begin to roll the phyllo away from you, folding in the sides as you roll. When you've rolled up the entire pastry, brush any exposed phyllo with butter.
• Place the strudel seam side down on the prepared baking sheet, brush again with butter (you may have a little left over), and cut 4 (1-inch) diagonal slits into the top just through the phyllo. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to 350°F and bake until the apples are knife tender and the juices are bubbling, about 30 to 40 minutes more. Let cool at least 10 minutes before slicing.

APPLE RAISIN CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• In your stand mixer bowl, add the yeast, 1 tsp of sugar, and lukewarm water. Let stand for a few minutes.
• When the yeast has foamed up, add the room temperature/lukewarm milk, oil, salt, ground cinnamon, sugar and 1 cup of flour. Mix with a spoon to combine.
• Put stand mixer bowl in place, add 2 more cups of flour and using the dough hook, allow the mixer to knead.
• If the dough is sticky, add flour 1/2 cup at a time.
• Let mixer knead dough for about 4 minutes and until it is no longer sticky.
• Remove dough from mixer bowl and oil the inside lightly. Place dough back in bowl, cover with a towel and let it sit in a warm spot until it has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• After the hour has passed, punch the dough down and let it sit for a few minutes while you prepare the pan and filling.
• Line an 9" x 13" pan with parchment paper. Allow an overhang on each side so they can be easily removed from the pan when done.
• Slice apples into 3/4" pieces (see images above to get an idea of how they should look).
• Prepare raisins (see tip above).
• In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and the cinnamon.
• Lightly flour your work surface, stretch and roll your dough into a rectangle that is approximately 12" x 18".
• Brush melted coconut oil over the entire surface.
• Sprinkle brown sugar/cinnamon mixture onto dough.
• Sprinkle raisins and then apples onto the dough.
• From the long side, firmly roll the dough. Roll slowly to ensure it is tight as can be.
• Pinch the entire length of the seam to seal and turn the entire roll seam side down so it's at the bottom.
• Slice off an inch of dough from each end.
• Slice the roll into 12 slices.
• Place each slice into the parchment lined pan. It's OK if they are close together.
• Cover with a towel and place in a warm spot. Let rise for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• After the rolls have rested, bake for about 20 minutes or until they are lightly browned.
• Remove from oven and let sit for a few minutes in pan.
• Remove using parchment paper overhang and place on a cooling rack.

APPLE RAISIN STRUDELS

Steps:

• Make the strudels:
• In a small skillet cook the bread crumbs in 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter over moderate heat, stirring, until they are golden and transfer them to a large bowl. To the bread crumbs add the apples, the granulated sugar, the raisins, and the cinnamon and toss the mixture well. On a work surface arrange an 18-inch-long-piece of wax paper with a long side facing you, cover it with 1 sheet of the phyllo, and brush the phyllo lightly with some of the remaining butter, melted. Layer 5 more sheets of the phyllo over the first sheet in the same manner, brushing each sheet lightly with some of the melted butter, and mound half the apple mixture evenly along the long side facing you, leaving a 2-inch border at each end. Using the wax paper as a guide and rolling away from you, roll up the strudel tightly and, with the seam side down, fold the ends under to enclose the filling. Transfer the strudel carefully to a lightly buttered jelly-roll pan and brush it with some of the remaining melted butter. Make another strudel with the remaining phyllo, melted butter, and apple filling in the same manner and transfer it to the jelly-roll pan. Bake the strudels in the middle of a preheated 375°F. oven for 35 to 45 minutes, or until they are golden, and let them cool to warm in the pan on the rack. The strudels may be made 1 day in advanced and kept covered loosely at room temperature. Reheat the strudels in a preheated 400°F. oven for 15 minutes. Transfer the strudels with slotted spatulas carefully to serving platters and dust them with the confectioners' sugar.
• Make the whipped cream:
• In a chilled bowl with an electric mixer beat the heavy cream with the sour cream, the confectioners' sugar, and the vanilla until the mixture holds soft peaks and transfer it to a serving bowl.
• Serve the strudels warm, sliced diagonally, with the whipped cream.
