Apfelstrudel

This adaptation of apfelstrudel, a traditional Austrian baked apple dessert, is made with less added sugar, uses avocado oil instead of butter and calls for whole-wheat phyllo dough for a nutritious dessert. Tart Granny Smith apples are used, but any apple variety can be substituted. Enjoy this fruit-filled dessert warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a cappuccino.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups sliced peeled Granny Smith apples (about 2 small)

  • ¼ cup chopped walnuts, toasted (see Tip)

  • ¼ cup raisins, soaked in hot water for 10 minutes then drained

  • 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • Pinch of salt

  • 6 sheets phyllo dough, preferably whole-wheat, thawed

  • 3 tablespoons avocado oil

  • 1½ teaspoons confectioners' sugar for dusting (optional)
