How to make Viennese strudel with cranberries
Making strudel dough. Put 45 g of vegetable margarine in warm water, stir and add to wheat flour. We knead the dough for 5-8 minutes, it should become soft, elastic, homogeneous to the touch.
It turned out 345 g of dough, wrap it in plastic wrap and leave it for 15-20 minutes at room temperature.



We divide the dough into 2 parts, as a result we get 2 small strudel. Roll out each piece very thinly, the surface of the table can be sprinkled with a little flour. This dough is called stretch dough, it is elastic and stretches quite easily to the desired size.
When the layer of dough becomes very thin and almost transparent, transfer it on a rolling pin to a clean linen towel. If holes form on a thin sheet of dough during the rolling process, then do not be upset, just put a patch on it from a piece of dough.

Cranberry strudel filling. Take sweet apples and fresh cranberries.

Cut apples, peeled from the core, into thin slices, add cranberries, sugar and a little water. We close the pan with a lid and prepare the filling for 15-20 minutes, 10 minutes after the start of cooking, you need to open the lid so that excess moisture evaporates. The filling for these baked goods should not be liquid and contain a lot of moisture.

Put the cooled filling along the long edge of the rolled dough. Melt the remaining 25 g of vegetable margarine, grease a loose piece of dough with a thin layer. Sprinkle with oatmeal on top. During baking, the flakes will absorb the juice from the filling and will not spill onto the baking sheet.

Wrap the edges of the dough (along the narrow side of the strudel) over the filling, then raise the wide edge and gently fold the roll. Handle the dough carefully, it is thin and can tear easily. We also make a second strudel.

Cover the baking sheet with parchment. We transfer the strudel to a towel, gently transfer and squeeze it slightly along the long side. The result is nice folds on the dough.

Bake strudel for 30 minutes. Temperature 210 degrees Celsius. Sprinkle the finished strudel with cranberries and apples with powdered sugar through a strainer. Strudel is eaten both hot and cold. Delicious with milk!
