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

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.

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!

I know some people love to make their own puff pastry recipe, but I personally find it easiest to buy the kind in the freezer section!

I love how easy it is to make quick recipes, and the flavor is fantastic.

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!
