This is a homemade German apple strudel with a crispy surface and soft apple filling on the inside. It is both quick and easy to do, when using an already prepared phyllo pastry. It can be eaten warm or cold, depending on your preference. It is traditionally served with some vanilla cream or vanilla sauce. The cake is not so photogenic but that is not the most important, the taste is great...
A fast end easy soup to make on an autumn day and taste good together with white bread as a main dish. Or you can serve the soup as a starter in small serving bowls.
