BAVARIAN APPLE STRUDEL 
10 oz. plain flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. oil
1 egg
6 oz. lukewarm water
8 to 10 cooking apples
Lemon juice
2 oz. butter, melted
1/2 pt. sour cream
2 tbsp. raisins
4 oz. sugar
1/4 pt. milk
Powdered sugar

Sift flour and salt into bowl. Stir in the mixed oil, egg, and water. Knead to a dough and continue kneading 10 more minutes. Cover and leave in warm place for 30 minutes. Peel and core apples. Slice thinly and sprinkle with lemon juice. Roll out dough on floured cloth and stretch to very thin. Brush with melted butter, then with sour cream. Top with apples, raisins, and sugar.

Roll up the Strudel, using cloth to lift it. Cut into portions to fit on one or two greased baking dishes. Brush with milk and bake at 450 degrees for 40-45 minutes, until golden brown. Brush with milk 3 or 4 times during baking. Dredge with powdered sugar. Serve warm or cool.
