Ingredients

• 8 sheets Phyllo dough sheets
• 4 Granny Smith apples
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cup Raisins
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 Optional for dusting Powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel and core the apples, then chop them into small chunks.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the chopped apples, brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, raisins, walnuts, and vanilla extract. Mix well and set aside.

Step 4

Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat or in a microwave-safe bowl.

Step 5

On a clean kitchen towel, lay out one phyllo sheet, and brush lightly with melted coconut oil. Layer another sheet on top and brush with more coconut oil. Repeat until all 8 sheets are used, brushing each layer with oil.

Step 6

Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly across the top layer of phyllo, leaving a 1-inch border.

Step 7

Spread the apple mixture evenly over the breadcrumbs.

Step 8

Using the towel to help you, carefully roll the phyllo and apple mixture into a log, starting from the side closest to you. Once rolled, carefully transfer the strudel to the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.

Step 9

Brush the entire surface with any remaining melted coconut oil.

Step 10

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the strudel is golden brown and crispy.

Step 11

Let it cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.

Step 12

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
