Peach Raspberry Strudel Recipes

APPLEBERRY-PEACH STRUDEL-STYLE PASTRY

Steps:

• In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and stir in apples. Saute for about 5 to 7 minutes until they begin to caramelize. Add lemon zest and juice, peaches, walnuts, and raisins and cinnamon and cook for about 5 more minutes. Stir in brown sugar and flour, remove from heat and gently fold in raspberries, and cool to room temperature.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• While the fruit is cooking, roll puff pastry out on a floured surface. Spoon some of the fruit mixture onto the pastry and begin to roll up the pastry, brushing each fold of pastry with butter and sprinkling some of the sugar as you go. If you are using 2 sheets of puff pastry, you will be making 2 strudel "rolls." Brush each roll with apricot jelly, place on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 40 minutes. Let cool completely and serve. (This is best served on the day it is made.)

PEACH RASPBERRY STRUDEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375ºF.
• Chop the almonds in a food processor.
• Add the oatmeal and process until the texture resembles coarse cornmeal.
• Add sugars and 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon.
• Process just combine the ingredients.
• Set aside.
• Combine diced peaches, raspberries, remaining 1 teaspoon cinnamon and vanilla extract, and toss to mix well.
• Place one sheet of phyllo on a clean counter.
• Brush lightly with melted butter to cover the entire sheet.
• Top with a second sheet of phyllo and brush with melted butter.
• Sprinkle about one-fifth of the pecan mixture generously over the top.
• Add another sheet of phyllo, butter it, and top with the pecan mixture, and keep the layers going to the last sheet of phyllo is used.
• Sprinkle the remaining pecan mixture over the top of the filo dough.
• Spread the fruit mixture in a log down one of the long sides of the phyllo sheets, leaving a 1-inch border on each end.
• Starting with the long end, roll the phyllo and fruit into a log, tucking the ends under so that the fruit is completely enclosed.
• Cut a piece of baking parchment big enough to fit the strudel.
• Place the strudel seam side down on a baking pan lined with the parchment.
• Brush the tops and sides of strudel with remaining melted butter.
• Make shallow cuts with a serrated knife along the top of the strudel, where you'll want to cut it after it is baked.
• Bake in a preheated 375ºF oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
• Serve warm or cold, dusted with powdered sugar and topped with ice cream or whipped cream.

RASPBERRY STRUDEL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Blend the tofu in a food processor until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, flour and vanilla and puree until combined.
• Stack the phyllo sheets on a flat surface and cover with a slightly damp kitchen towel. Cut a piece of parchment paper slightly longer than the phyllo. Lay 1 sheet phyllo on the parchment with a long side facing you (keep the remaining phyllo covered). Brush with 1 tablespoon butter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon graham cracker crumbs. Top with another sheet of phyllo, then more butter and crumbs. Repeat with the remaining phyllo sheets, topping each with butter and crumbs. Reserve the remaining butter and crumbs for topping.
• Spoon the tofu mixture across the length of the phyllo, leaving a 1-inch border at the long edge closest to you and a 2-inch border at the short ends. Sprinkle the raspberries on top of the tofu mixture. Starting with the long edge, use the parchment to roll the phyllo tightly over the filling to make a log; turn seam-side down on the parchment. Brush with the remaining butter and sprinkle with the remaining crumbs.
• Transfer the parchment and strudel to a baking sheet. Bake until golden, about 18 minutes, rotating the baking sheet halfway through. Slide the strudel onto a cutting board and let cool completely, about 1 hour. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

PEACH-RASPBERRY STREUSEL TART

Cool 10 minutes before filling.
• Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Spread pie filling over bottom of partially baked crust. Top with raspberries. In medium bowl, mix topping ingredients with pastry blender or fork until crumbly; sprinkle over raspberries and pie filling.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until filling is hot and topping is golden brown. Cool completely, about 1 hour 30 minutes, before serving.

PEACH-RASPBERRY CRISP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter an 8x10-inch glass baking dish.

• Add 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, cinnamon, and orange zest to the bowl with the peaches. Mix well to coat. Fold in raspberries. Let sit for 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine 1 cup flour, remaining 1/2 cup white sugar, remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar, oats, butter, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Mix topping until well combined into pea-sized crumbs.
• Pour fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish. Cover fruit evenly with crumble topping. Place the baking dish on a cookie sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until topping is golden brown and fruit juices are bubbling, about 1 hour.
• Remove crisp from the oven and let cool, 45 minutes to 1 hour, before serving.
