GLUTEN NOTE: This is one of the few recipes in this cookbook that contains gluten (from Iron

the whole wheat filo) I have included this recipe because because it is an interesting pastry * Percent Daily Values are based on a

calorie diet

but simply can not be made without gluten because filo needs to be made with a flour

containing gluten to achieve the desired effect The recipe in the form shown below is not

suitable for people who want to or need to avoid gluten The filling is free of gluten and

can be served in a variety of other ways (eg in a pie crust)

FILLING

tablespoons brown rice flour

/ teaspoons ground cinnamon

FILO

grams whole wheat filo thawed

(the weight of different filos varies)

(overall you need "x" sheets)

/ cup walnut oil refined for brushing

(or canola or safflower oil)

pounds apples

(

about medium apples)

tablespoons lemon juice

tablespoon lemon peel chopped

pinch sea salt

/ cup Frangelico liqueur

/ cup maple syrup

cup raisins

/ cup walnuts toasted

/ cup whole sugar (eg Rapadura)

(overall quantity used will depend on

amount brushed on each sheet)

(

or Sucanat sugar or granulated sugar)

FILLING

Thinly slice apples and gently toss with lemon juice lemon peel and salt in a large bowl Add Frangelico liqueur

maple syrup raisins and walnuts and gently toss again Sprinkle in half of the whole sugar half of the flour and

half of the cinnamon and toss again Add the other half of the sugar flour and cinnamon and toss one final time

ASSEMBLY

To assemble the strudel oil a large (about "x") baking pan Lay / of the filo sheets (about "x" pieces)

into the bottom of the pan brushing each layer of filo with oil Spread about / of the apple mixture on top of

this first layer of filo Continue this filofilling layering until all filling if used and then top with the last layer of

filo (always brushing it with oil) There should be layers of filo (with sheets per layer) and layers of filling

Cover pan with foil and bake in a degree F ( degree C) oven (no need to preheat the oven) for minutes

then remove foil and bake minutes more to give the top filo layer a golden brown appearance

Slices of strudel freeze well
