This is not a SFW instance. NSFW communities will be tagged, and efforts will be made to keep SFW communities clean, but proceed at your own comfort level.
And, they’re unbelievably easy to make, super affordable (one ~$3 box of puff pastry [+jam/fruit/bacon/etc] ≈ six boxes of store-bought “strudels”), and simple enough that a kid can build & bake 'em. 🤙🏼
Enjoy! 🤩
p.s. The link basically describes: puff pastry thawed and scored/cut to shape (x2); cooling your filling of choice (hot filling + puff pastry = fail); 1-2T of filling centered on 1 (of 2) scored/cut sheet w/ ~¾" margins; fork-pressing edges to seal (eg. pie crust edges); then, baking the batch and letting it cool before strudeling the lot.
Frankly, if you “par-bake” (50-80% bake time), counter cool (on a rack, so the bottom doesn’t sog), and freeze them, then popping them in the toaster as needed is a cinch. 😉
Toaster Strudels are definitely better than Pop Tarts, but they have also been victims of shrinkflation over the years.

Idk who you are but thank you for changing my life.
Genuinely happy to help scatter the fog of mystique and point the way for my fellow anons. 🙇🏼♂️
Have fun in your kitchen, and spread the knowledge, too! 👨🏼🍳
