Apple Strudel

This turned out tastey, but we made 3 strudels and agreed that we should make 2 with the same ingredients. Also, I used black raisins instead of the golden and currants, but I'm listing them in the recipe because I can see the desire for that.

1 pound sweet apples -- peeled, cored and thinly sliced

1/4 cup golden raisins

1/4 cup dried currants

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 tablespoons white sugar

2 slices brown bread, crumbled

1/2 (16 ounce) package phyllo dough

1/4 cup butter, melted

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F

In a bowl, combine apples, raisins, currants, cinnamon, sugar and bread crumbs. Stir well.

Spread several sheets of pastry generously with melted butter and lay them on atop the other on a baking sheet. (Making 2 strudels.) Spread the fruit mixture evenly over the top sheet, then roll the sheets up to form a log shape. Brush with melted butter again.

Bake in preheated oven 20 minutes, then put foil over the top and bake 10 more minutes (until pastry is golden brown and fruit is tender.)

When cool, top with powdered vanilla sugar and serve with whipped cream or vanilla sauce. Enjoy.
