Description
The recipe won’t take much time. The strudel is quite easy to make. The crepes turn out with a delicate, creamy flavour. For this dessert, choose tart–sweet, firm apples so they don’t turn to purée after cooking. Besides vanilla, cinnamon is often added to the filling, but I think you should stick to just one of the spices. A great dessert for adults and children. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
