Hello friends! Today I am sharing one of my FAVORITE dessert recipes. This is a go to recipe when I have to take dessert to feed a crowd. It is so simple and versatile and you can use any kind of pie filling. We have tried all kinds, but this caramel apple is perfect for fall. I got this recipe from a roommate when I attended college at BYU-Idaho. My roommate has an identical twin so this recipe was called The Twins Streudel. YOU MUST GIVE IT A TRY! I promise you won’t regret it.
Let’s get baking:
Start by creaming together butter and sugar.
Next add eggs, vanilla, baking powder and salt. Mix.
Add flour and mix well. Your dough should be sticky and look like this.
Spread half of the dough out on a 15x10x1 inch, jelly roll pan. This part takes a little patience, but it is well worth the effort.
The good stuff:
Spread pie filling over dough. I used two small cans of pie filling. You can use one big can or if you want less pie filling just use one small can. This would also be amazing with homemade pie filling. Just make sure it is not too wet.
Doesn’t that look tasty already?! To finish up just drop the other half of the dough on top by spoonful.
Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes. Sneak a peek while it bakes away. Smells sooooooo goooood….
Hot and fresh out of the oven.
The finishing touch:
The glaze that is drizzled over this deliciousness is super simple. Just whisk the powdered sugar, melted butter and milk. I used about two tablespoons of milk. It makes a little more glaze than you really need. Mix it up and drizzle all over the top, or you could also skip the glaze and drizzle caramel over the top. YUM!
