Apfelstrudel (Apple Strudel)
Paper-thin strudel dough rolled around spiced apples, raisins, and breadcrumbs, baked until shattering and golden.
Why It Works
Stretching the dough until you can read through it creates maximum flaky layers. Toasted breadcrumbs absorb apple juice, preventing a soggy bottom.
