The recipe may not be as pretty and formatted as the others but that’s what I love about it. This is the original recipe from my Oma for the family favorite Austrian apple strudel. I wouldn’t want to present it any other way.
The art and challenge of this delicate pastry is what makes it one of my favorites. Not only is it a family heirloom but it keeps me connected to my heritage and shows my pride for where I am from.
It is a recipe that takes patience, gentleness, and lots of love. All things my Oma has taught me without having to be here, brought through this recipe. I know she would be proud to see me making this recipe for my dad and continuing the pass-down of this family treasure. 🍏💜
