Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet puff pastry dough (thawed if frozen)
  • 1-2 ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
  • 2 tbsp honey (adjust based on the sweetness of the peaches and your preference)
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 yolk (for brushing)
  • some sugar (to sprinkle)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, mix the sliced peaches, honey, ground cinnamon, and lemon juice. Toss the mixture gently to coat the peaches in the honey and spices. Let the filling sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Spread the peach filling evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a border of about 2 inches along the edges. Cut the edges into strips.
  • Starting at one end, fold the pastry strips over the peach mixture, alternating sides until you completely cover the peach mixture.
  • Transfer the rolled strudel onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top of the strudel with the yolk and sprinkle with sugar for a golden finish.
  • Bake the peach strudel in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Once baked, remove the strudel from the oven and let it cool slightly on the baking sheet.
  • Slice the peach strudel into portions and serve warm. You can enjoy it on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a drizzle of caramel sauce, or a dollop of whipped cream.
