6 servings
For the strudel
- 6 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 3 tbsp plain breadcrumbs
For the filling
- 4 medium apples (about 1 ½ lb), peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground ceylon cinnamon
Ingredient noteInterstitial cystitis treats warming spices like cinnamon as test-your-tolerance because they can irritate a sensitive bladder, but the small amount in this recipe (~1/6 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid cinnamon, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
For serving
- 1 tbsp powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- 1

Melt 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced apples, granulated sugar, and Ceylon cinnamon, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are just softened and the sugar has dissolved into a light syrup, about 6–8 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
