How To Make Topfenstrudel –this is a traditional sort of
sweet and layered pastry in Austria. Strudel became popular in Habsburg. Countries like Germany, Austria, Hungary and
Switzerland have their own version of this pastry. This is considered as one of
the oldest kinds of pastry in Europe because there are records proving that in
17th century, Strudels were already served that resemble some of the
pastries of Turkish and Baklava cuisines. In this recipe I am going to share
with you, we are going to use maple syrup instead of the traditional and
commonly used vanilla sauce in making Strudel. Here is how to make
