Ingredients

• 200 grams Almond flour
• 50 grams Coconut flour
• 80 grams Unsalted butter
• 2 large Eggs
• 50 grams Stevia or erythritol sweetener
• 3 medium Granny Smith apples
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Almond milk
• 30 grams Crushed walnuts
• 1 tablespoon Coconut oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave and let it cool slightly.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the cooled melted butter, eggs, and almond milk until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.

Step 6

Knead the dough slightly on a surface dusted with almond flour until smooth. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.

Step 7

While the dough chills, peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Toss them in a bowl with lemon juice, stevia, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and crushed walnuts.

Step 8

Retrieve the dough from the refrigerator. Place it between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out to a rectangle about 12x14 inches in size.

Step 9

Remove the top parchment sheet. Spoon the apple filling along the length of the dough, leaving about 1 inch free on each side.

Step 10

Gently use the parchment paper to help roll the dough over the filling, forming a log shape. Seal the edges using a bit of water to help seal the dough.

Step 11

Transfer the rolled strudel to the prepared baking sheet. Melt the coconut oil and brush it over the top of the strudel.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 13

Allow the strudel to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving warm.
