Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons Ice water
• 1 cup Low sodium strawberry jam
• 1 large Egg
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Milk (low sodium or unsweetened plant-based milk)
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and granulated sugar.

Step 2

Cut in cold, unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Slowly add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 4

Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 5

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

Step 6

On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Cut into 12 even rectangles (approximately 3 inches by 5 inches).

Step 7

Place 6 of the rectangles on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the low sodium strawberry jam into the center of each rectangle, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 8

Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush the edges of each filled rectangle with the egg wash.

Step 9

Place the remaining 6 dough rectangles on top of the jam-filled rectangles, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for extra security.

Step 10

Brush the tops of the strudels with the remaining egg wash and prick the tops with a fork to allow steam to escape.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the strudels are golden brown.

Step 12

While the strudels cool slightly, make the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract (if using) until smooth.

Step 13

Drizzle the glaze over the cooled strudels before serving.
