mini apple and oat strudels
These won Bob's Red Mill 2013 "Spar for the Spurtle" and sent me to Scotland-they're good for breakfast, dessert, or a snack any time.
Blue Ribbon Recipe
The different textures in these apple and oat strudels are wonderful. The soft, warm oat center is infused with the flavor of coconut and cinnamon. Then there are tart bits of apple and sweet raisins to bring the autumn flavors together. When fried, the egg roll wrappers are crispy and golden brown. Dusted with powdered sugar, this is a yummy fall treat.

How To Make mini apple and oat strudels
-
Step 1Soak oats in coconut milk and water in the refrigerator overnight.
-
Step 2Heat peanut oil in a wok or large pot to 350 degrees, using a thermometer.
-
Step 3Peel, core, and chop apples into 1/2 inch pieces and place in a small bowl; sprinkle with the juice of the lemon and stir to coat.
-
Step 4In a 2-quart saucepan on high heat, combine soaked oats, apples with lemon juice, spices, brown sugar, and maple syrup. Bring to a boil, stirring, add salt, and reduce the heat to medium. Cook 10 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally.
-
Step 5Add walnuts and raisins; stir well and continue to cook, covered, on medium heat 5-10 more minutes, stirring occasionally. When apples are tender and oats are cooked, transfer to a bowl to cool slightly.

Step 6With a corner of an eggroll wrapper pointed towards you, place 2 Tablespoons of filling in the middle and spread from side to side, leaving 1 inch on each side.
-
Step 7Pull up the bottom corner and snugly cover the filling. Bring each side corner over.
-
Step 8Pat the edges of the remaining top corner with water. Roll to seal, making sure the end is tucked under. Repeat for the remaining egg rolls.
-
Step 9Cook 3 at a time in heated oil for 1 minute on each side, or until golden and crispy.
-
Step 10Drain well on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining egg rolls.
