Mom's Famous Apple Strudel


 Ok, so this is my first post and I thought it should be a good one.  Apple strudel is a favourite around here although I have made it only once before. This is the authentic just like mom’s one.  I have made previous versions with puff pastry or phyllo dough. These are all good, but not the same. I think it turned out pretty good. It was really really big so feel free to cut the recipe in half unless you’re feeding a crowd.
