Rich blueberry strudel
For years we have been going to Gorski Kotar for fine blueberry and forest fruit strudels. A few years ago, I decided to try myself in the preparation of blueberry strudel, and as my daughters have been saying that it is "divine" lately, I decided to share the recipe with you.
Preparation steps
- Crush the biscuits and coarsely grind the almonds. Melt the butter and brush the first and second crusts. Place the third crust on which the filling goes.
- Arrange the blueberries, as well as the other ingredients, in three parts because we make three rolls. Put a third of the blueberries on the dough (so that it takes up 3/4 of the surface; the last quarter is left empty so that the mixture does not run out when rolling), sprinkle with one vanilla sugar and regular sugar (1/3), then a third of jam, a third of almonds and a third of ground biscuits .
- Grate a third of the lemon zest over the fillet and also drizzle a little with lemon. Then soak the mixture in blueberry juice as desired and finally sprinkle with two tablespoons of rum.
- We roll the strudel, taking care to close the ends so that the ingredients do not leak out during baking. Place the strudels in a shallow, pre-oiled pan and coat them with the rest of the melted butter.
- Place the strudels in an oven preheated to 200 degrees and bake for about 45 minutes, until they take on a golden color
