Cook time: 30 minutes
Serves: 8

Ingredients

2 lbs Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup light brown sugar

1/4 cup unsalted butter

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

1/4 tsp ground cloves

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup caramel sauce

1 package phyllo dough (16 oz)

1/2 cup melted butter for brushing

1/4 cup chopped walnuts

1/4 cup raisins

Instructions

1: Preheat the oven to 375°F.

2: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and add the sliced apples.

3: Stir in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.

4: Cook the apples for about 10 minutes until they are tender.

5: Stir in the flour and cook for an additional 2 minutes to thicken the mixture.

6: Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then stir in the caramel sauce, walnuts, and raisins.

7: On a clean surface, lay out one sheet of phyllo dough and brush with melted butter. Layer another sheet on top, repeating the process until you have a stack of 5 sheets.

8: Spoon a portion of the apple mixture along one edge of the phyllo dough, then carefully roll it up into a log, tucking in the edges.

9: Place strudel seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

10: Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling until all is used.

11: Brush the tops of the strudels with more melted butter.

12: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

13: Allow to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
