Apfelstrudel Recipe

Cut the apples into very thin slices and stew them for a minutes with the sugar and the cinnamon. Brush the Strudel dough with some melted butter and sprinkle it with breadcrumbs. Spread the apples and the raisins evenly on top of it. If desired add some chopped nuts and/or grated lemon peel. By lifting the cloth on one side, roll up the Strudel. Let it slide from the cloth onto a buttered baking sheet. Brush the Strudel with some melted butter or egg yolk. Depending on the size it should bake for 30..40 minutes in a fairly hot oven (200xC/400xF). For an extra moist Strudel one may pour 125..250 ml (4-8 oz) of milk onto the baking sheet.
