Ingredients

• 1 sheet (thawed) frozen puff pastry
• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons (melted) unsalted butter
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• 2 tablespoons (for garnish) powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh raspberries, granulated sugar, chopped walnuts, ground cinnamon, and flour. Toss gently to coat the raspberries without crushing them.

Step 3

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet into a rectangle approximately 12x10 inches.

Step 4

Spread the raspberry-nut mixture evenly down the center of the puff pastry, leaving about 1.5 inches of space along the edges.

Step 5

Using a sharp knife, make 1-inch diagonal cuts along both long sides of the pastry, cutting towards the center filling. These will form strips for braiding.

Step 6

Fold the top and bottom ends of the pastry over the filling to seal it, then alternately fold the strips from each side over the filling, creating a braided pattern.

Step 7

Brush the entire strudel with melted butter to help with even browning.

Step 8

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the strudel with the egg wash for a shiny finish.

Step 9

Transfer the strudel to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.

Step 10

Remove the strudel from the oven and allow it to cool slightly on a wire rack.

Step 11

Garnish with a dusting of powdered sugar before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
