4-Ingredient Vegan Apple Strudel with a Creamy Custard Filling

All you need to make this 4-ingredient vegan apple strudel with custard are:

For the Apple Strudel:

3 tablespoons vegan butter
One half cup and one tablespoon of breadcrumbs.
One-third cup plus two teaspoons of brown sugar.
14 ounces diced cooking apples
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract/essence
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 cap full of rum
1 vegan puff pastry sheet

For the Custard:

2 cups of non-dairy milk
2 teaspoon vanilla extract/essence
2/5 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons corn starch

Prepared with ease and simplicity, this vegan apple strudel recipe requires mere 4 ingredients and a dollop of creamy custard for the ultimate indulgence.

Preheat the oven to 360°F.
Gently melt vegan butter in a saucepan over low heat. Add breadcrumbs and toast slightly. To sidestep vegan butter, consider toasting your ingredients in a drizzle of sunflower or coconut oil instead.
In a bowl, combine the toasted breadcrumbs with brown sugar, chopped cooking apples, crushed walnuts, ground cinnamon, a hint of vanilla extract, a squeeze of lemon juice, and a splash of rum – approximately one capsule’s worth.
Mix together with your hands.
Unfold a sheet of puff pastry to its original dimensions. Spread the mixture onto the sheet in an even layer, centered in the middle, much like assembling a wrap. Carefully folding the lower portion of the sheet over the mixture, remove any excess paper and subsequently fold the upper segment over, ensuring a secure seal. Remove the parchment paper and gently press it into place to prevent it from rising during baking. Then fold in both ends.
Preheat the oven and bake the dish for 20 minutes, or until it achieves a pleasant golden brown hue.
As the vegan apple strudel bakes to perfection, simultaneously prepare the creamy vegan custard.
In a chilled pan, combine 2 cups of milk, the essence of vanilla, powdered icing sugar, and cornstarch. Whisk thoroughly to ensure a smooth consistency with no lumps remaining. Bring to a simmer and cook at a moderate temperature for 5-10 minutes. Stir the mixture continuously to prevent it from burning, as it has a tendency to scorch easily. Once the custard has had sufficient time to simmer, it should thicken to a smooth and creamy consistency.
Carefully remove the perfectly baked strudel from the oven, its sweet aroma wafting through the air, tantalizing your senses and building anticipation for that first bite. If you’re feeling impatient, you can certainly indulge immediately; however, it’s generally suggested that the dish is allowed to rest for a brief period first. Sprinkle a dusting of confectioner’s sugar and a pinch of warm cinnamon atop the treat for added sweetness and depth. Savoring a slice, allow the rich, creamy vegan custard to cascade effortlessly over its velvety surface, as the sweet aroma of indulgence fills the air.
