Ingredients You’ll Need:

For this homemade toaster strudel recipe, you only need a handful of ingredients:

• 1 package puff pastry – Most store-bought versions (like Pepperidge Farm) are accidentally vegan. Let it thaw before using.

• 1/3 to 1/2 cup strawberry jam – Use more or less based on how jammy you want them. Look for one with real fruit and no added gelatin.

For the Glaze:

• 1 cup powdered sugar

• 3–4 tablespoons nondairy milk – Almond, oat, soy, or whatever you like. Adjust amount for desired glaze consistency.

Tips & Substitution Ideas

• Filling Variations: Try raspberry jam, blueberry compote, or even chocolate hazelnut spread for different flavors.

• Add Fruit: Add sliced fresh strawberries to the jam for extra texture and flavor.

• Make it Fancy: Add a splash of vanilla or a tiny pinch of salt to the glaze for a flavor boost.

• Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 1–2 days. Reheat in the toaster oven for best texture.

Ingredients:

• Puff pastry

• Strawberry jam

• Powdered sugar

• Nondairy milk

Recipe:

• 1 package puff pastry

• 1/3-1/2 cup strawberry jam

Glaze:

• 1 cup powdered sugar

• 3-4 tablespoons nondairy milk

Directions:

1. Preheat and Prep Puff Pastry
   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut it into 6 equal rectangles.

2. Add the Filling
   Spoon about 1–1.5 tablespoons of strawberry jam onto 3 of the rectangles, leaving a small border around the edges. Be careful not to overfill — it can leak out during baking.

3. Seal and Crimp
   Place the remaining 3 rectangles on top and use a fork to press down and seal the edges. Poke the tops a couple of times with a fork to allow steam to escape.

4. Bake
   Transfer to the baking sheet and bake for 18–20 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown.

5. Make the Glaze
   While the strudels are cooling slightly, whisk together the powdered sugar and nondairy milk until smooth. Drizzle over warm pastries.

6. Serve Warm
   These are best enjoyed fresh from the oven with the glaze melting into the flaky layers!
