I first had an apple strudel when visiting the castles in Zagreb. They are delicious. When my host family received a crate of apples from the neighbors I suggested we make štrudla od jabuka. So last night my host mom and I made apple strudel. I can't stop eating them so unfortunately they are almost all gone. So here are some pictures.
The apples...

Showing me how its done
First you pour oil on the doughThen you place the grated apple at one end
Add bread grains (absorbs moisture from apples), cinnamon and sugar.Then start rolling.
Lay out on baking sheet
Before putting in the oven you cover with sour cream

Dear Hannah,
I was trying to make strudel and searched for advice since my dough was dry and cracking.
Came to your blog, as I am senior citizen of Croatia living 30 years in Africa, and past president of Rotary Club here, was happy to see visitors tomy country of birth to be happy eating strudl od jabuka
Happy stay in Varazdin
Ivan
