Description

This cherry strudel is incredibly easy to make. With a flaky pastry and sweet-tart cherries, it's all but irresistible.

Ingredients
  • 1 sheet puff pastry (defrosted)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • pinch of salt
  • 4 cups fresh cherries (stems and pits removed)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (for dusting the top)
Instructions
  1. 1

    Defrost the puff pastry according to package directions. (It takes approximately 30 minutes to defrost one sheet)

     

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 375° F

    In a large bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, toss the cherries with the lemon juice, then add them to the dry mixture.

  4. 4

    Gently toss until the cherries are well-coated, then set aside.

  5. 5

    Unfold the puff pastry and roll it out onto a lightly floured surface to approximately 11 x 15 inches.

  6. 6

    Spoon the cherry mixture out onto the dough in a line down the middle.

  7. 7

    Fold one edge over the cherries, then take the opposite side and fold it over—tucking in the ends.

  8. 8

    Brush the top of the strudel with the melted butter, then sprinkle generously with sugar.

  9. 9

    Use a serrated knife to make several diagonal slashes along the top of the strudel, then carefully transfer the strudel to a Baking Sheet that's been lined with Parchment Paper.
