Here is a step-by-step guide on how to make apple strudel with phyllo dough: 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. 2. Combine apples, sugar, cinnamon, and raisins in a bowl. 3. Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough on a lightly floured surface. 4. Spread the apple mixture over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. 5.
Sprinkle a bit of brown sugar on top. Once you have all 10 to 12 sheet nicely layered, add the apple filling on top and fold the edges of the phyllo then roll like you would a jelly roll. Bake at 375 degrees F for about 35 minutes phyllo turns a nice golden brown. Cool for a bit, then sprinkle with powdered sugar. Slice and serve!
