With its delicious flavour of apples, cinnamon and sultanas, Apfelstrudel is an iconic dessert that brings the cosy spirit of winter, perfect for festive moments accompanied by a good Port wine. We recommend a glass of Taylor's 20 Year Old Tawny to go with it.

  • Melt half the butter in a frying pan, add the breadcrumbs, let them brown and spread the mixture evenly over the pastry.
  • Finely slice the peeled apples and mix with the sultanas.
  • Add the roughly chopped walnut kernels, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar and drizzle with the juice of the lemons.
  • Place the apple and sultana mixture in the centre of the pastry, cover with the side edges, roll up the roll and turn it over with the ends down.
  • Prick it with a toothpick and decorate with strips made from the reserved trimmings. Brush with the remaining melted butter and bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Brush the roll with melted butter as it bakes. Serve warm, sprinkled with icing sugar.
