apfelstrudel
Rolled apple dessert
Apfelstrudel is a traditional Austrian pastry consisting of thin, flaky dough wrapped around a filling of sliced apples, sugar, cinnamon, raisins, and breadcrumbs.
The dough is stretched paper-thin before rolling, creating the characteristic layered texture.
A staple of Viennese coffeehouse culture, it's typically served warm with whipped cream or vanilla sauce: We shared an apfelstrudel after dinner.
