Easy Breakfast Recipe
There are some foods in life that cross the line between dessert and meal.
For instance.
- Banana Nut Scones. Traditionally you think of a scone as a dessert…but these beauties are covered in a thick (mind you, delicious) frosting!
- Or how about these Apple Pie Doughnuts? I mean, donuts are always breakfast right? But one bite of these and you’re looking over your shoulder for the breakfast police. They are rich enough to serve as dessert!
That’s basically how I feel about those store bought toaster strudels. You toast one of these pastries, top it with icing, and call it breakfast?
It’s either ridiculous or genius (PIE FOR BREAKFAST!!). I love my homemade toaster strudel recipe. It’s easy, delicious, and so many flavor combinations possible!
How to make Strawberry Strudel
![Step by step photos showing how to make toaster strudels from puff pastry.](https://www.shugarysweets.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/strawberry-strudel-crust.jpg)
Prep the Puff Pastry.
- Once thawed, cut each sheet of pastry along the seams (making 3 strips on each sheet). Cut each strip in half, for a total of 6 rectangles on each sheet, and 12 rectangles in all.
- Poke with a fork and lay on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 12 minutes.
![Step by step photos showing how to add pie filling to strudel.](https://www.shugarysweets.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/strawberry-strudel-filling.jpg)
Add Pie Filling. Spoon strawberry pie filling onto the center of the pastry, careful to not go over the edges too much.

Make Cream Cheese Icing.
- Similar to cream cheese frosting, you’ll make a thin icing by beating cream cheese with powdered sugar and milk for about 3 minutes. Add more milk if needed to get desired consistency.
- Drizzle warm pastries with icing and enjoy!

Strawberry Toaster Strudel Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 package Pepperidge Farm Puff Pastry 2 sheets
- 1 can strawberry pie filling 21 ounce
- 2 ounce cream cheese softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 Tablespoons milk
Instructions
- Thaw puff pastry according to package directions. Unfold and cut each sheet of pastry along seams (making 3 strips on each). Cut each strip in half, for a total of 6 rectangles on each sheet (12 in all). Poke many times with a fork and lay on parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake in a 400 degree oven for 10-12 minutes. Spoon strawberry filling into center of pastry, careful to not go over edges. Return to oven for 3-4 minutes.
- Meanwhile, beat cream cheese with powdered sugar and milk for about 3 minutes until creamy. Add more milk to get to desired consistency.
- Remove pastries from oven and drizzle with cream cheese frosting. Serve warm!
Notes
- You can also add some of the cream cheese filling to the pastry. Spoon a dollop on the pastry, add the strawberry pie filling, return to oven for 3-4 minutes. Then drizzle with more frosting. This is MY favorite! You may need to double the filling/frosting if you do it this way though!
- Use apple pie filling or blueberry pie filling for another delicious treat!
- Skip the icing and dust with powdered sugar instead!
Oh my, these look delicious!!
This is will be an awesome and sweet treat to make for my girls in the morning! can’t wait to try!
mmm..this looks incredible!! Such a fantastic dessert!!
My kids are crazy about this struedel! It’s absolutely delicious! I need to try it with different berries!
My kids would eat these struedels every day if I would make them. Great recipe!
Just so you now – having made these for awhile now and LOVE them – if you cut your dough into squares, add the filling to the middle and fold over to triangle shape, bake then ice…..you have an Arby’s turnover fascimile. And who doesn’t love those things!!
Great tip Dianne!! Glad you enjoyed the recipe 🙂
Hi, there. This looks awesome, but Pinterest won’t let me pin it with “broken” images. Could you please fix that? Thank you so very much.
Um…how would you put the filling INSIDE the pastry? Just curious. Thanks!
You can cut two pieces place the filling inside and pinch the edges. Might work?!
This brings back memories! As a kid, I would always beg my mom to get me toaster streudels. She was so sweet and would give in. I’m totally gonna make these. I bet they’re waaay better than the frozen kind from the store 🙂
Oh yummy! I love struedel! I have to put this on my list of breakfasts to make!
Yum Yum!!! I just found your blog on foodie friday. I’ll host a party every month with a different theme and would love you to join! Please visit my blog for more information on “My Sweet Party” post uploaded 2nd of May.
