Easy Apple Strudel with Crescent Rolls

My income is driven by advertising. The advertisers not only have to feel like their investment is worth it from the experience readers get from my website, but they also have to see data that proves it’s worth it. There is a lot of time and effort put into making sure the criteria is met! To the reader it just looks like free recipes. To the blogger, it’s like an underground world that we are trying to navigate!

Every new day goes just as fast as it comes for me. I blink and another day is gone. The definition of intentional has a whole new meaning to me! One of the things I try to be intentional about is learning and growing. It is important to me that I stay informed on all things blogging. The industry changes so quickly and I want to keep up!

It took me about a year to establish a solid schedule that worked for me after I quit my ‘real’ job. While I was experimenting with what worked and what didn’t, I listened to a podcast that gave advice to food bloggers. One of the episodes was on maximizing limited time. This was something I needed help with! I loved that episode so much I actually emailed her to thank her and she mentioned me in her following podcast!

One of her recommendations was to work in batches. Which means, when you are making Easy Apple Strudel , make Easy Cream Cheese Strudel , Easy Blueberry Cream Cheese Strudel , or Easy Strawberry Cream Cheese Strudel while you are at it! It uses your time more efficiently and it produces additional similar recipe posts, which is good for both readers and advertisers!

If you like breakfast Danishes, then I think you’ll like Crescent Roll Cheese Danish and Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish , too!

What You’ll Need for the Strudel

1 (8 oz) tube Pillsbury Crescent Rolls

1 1/2 cups Apple Pie Filling

1 Egg, Beaten

Sugar

And the Icing

1/2 cup Powdered Sugar

1 tbsp Milk

How to Easily Make Apple Strudel

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Unroll 1 (8 oz) tube Pillsbury Crescent Rolls onto parchment paper lined baking sheet. Press the seams together and straighten edges out.

Using a pizza cutter, cut 1″ strips down both sides of the dough, leaving about 3″ of uncut dough in the center for the filling.

Spread 1 1/2 cups apple pie filling up and down the center where the dough wasn’t cut.

Wrap sliced strips over the filling, overlapping them like a braid.

Brush outside of the dough with beaten egg. (You won’t use entire egg)

Generously sprinkle the top with sugar.

Bake for 15 minutes.

Make the icing by whisking together 1/2 cup powdered sugar with 1 tbsp milk. Drizzle over the strudel.
