Easy Mini Peach Strudel Recipe

I just love to bake and there isn’t a weekend that goes by that I don’t bake something. I know, it’s summer and it’s too hot for the oven. But as I’ve said many times before baking relaxes me and it’s very therapeutic for me. I love to experiment with new pastries and to see the final result, it just makes me so happy.

Whenever we buy fruits, all I can think of are all the pastries I can make with them. 🙂 These mini peach strudels are so adorable and so scrumptious. You can really fill them with anything you prefer, like apples, cherries, apricots, etc.

This recipe will make 8 strudels so if you want more you can double the recipe.

How To Make Mini Peach Strudels

Start by warming up half the milk in a microwave for about 20 seconds, you don’t want it boiling. To the milk add a teaspoon of honey and a couple tablespoons of flour. Mix it all well, then add the yeast. Whisk it all well together and let it sit for about half hour.

Batter in a bowl

After half hour if your yeast was not expired the dough starter should have doubled up in size.

Doubled up dough starter in a plastic bowl

Now add this dough starter to the mixer bowl, and add the egg, and the sugar. Mix it well until it’s well incorporated. Add the flour to the bowl, the butter, vanilla extract, the remaining milk, salt and mix well on medium speed for a couple minutes. The dough should be soft and pliable. Form in a ball and let it rise in a warm spot.

Dough ball in a mixing bowl

While the dough is rising, you can get the peaches ready. You’ll need about 3 large peaches for the 8 strudels.

Wash the peaches and peel them and remove the pits. Cut them up in slices, they don’t have to be too thin. In a small sauce pan add the peaches and 1/4 cup of sugar. Turn the heat to medium and cook the peaches for about 5 minutes.

A bowl of chopped peaches

Let the peaches cool, they need to be cold before we add them to the pastry. The dough should take about an hour to double in size.

Dough in a mixing bowl

Cut the dough in 8 equal pieces and roll each one of them up in a ball.

Formed dough balls resting

Let them rest for another half hour and they will double in size. After half hour, take one of the balls, and roll it out into a rectangle about 6 inches wide and 6 inches long. Place a heaping tablespoon of the peach filling into the middle of the rectangle, and fold one of the sides over the filling. Use a fork to seam the dough. Now take a pair of scissors and cut the other third of the dough into thin strips as you see in the picture below:

Assembling the Mini Peach Strudels

This is a bit of a messy job, but a lot of fun. Now take each long strip and fold it over the roll and tuck it in underneath. Continue this with the remaining dough and peaches. Place them on a cookie sheet lined with a silpat or parchment paper and let them rest for about 10 minutes.

Before baking brush each strudel with egg wash and bake in the oven at 375 F degrees for about 30 minutes or until golden brown. They look so cute and adorable, and trust me they taste delicious too. 🙂

    Hi Jo…. for the mini peach strudels….can I use a ready made dough?

    If so would it be puff pastry or pie dough? Thanks so much.

      Yes you can! You can honestly use either, totally up to your preference.

    Great recipe. My first time making a pastry like this. I’ve been having fun doing the laminated bakes lately and came across this. My only issue was the bake time was way too high and half were burnt so I’ll be dropping the bake time down considerably for the next one.
    One thing though, a few of them exploded out the back of the pastry (not the seamed side) while they were baking. Any suggestions on why that happened or how I’d be able to fit.

      Every oven is different, using a slightly lower temp might help you as well. You can seal the ends with a bit of egg wash and a fork to make everything extra secure.

    Hi Jo. I was wondering if you mixed your dough with a mixing blade or a dough hook?

    I used the mixing blade of my mixer instead of a dough hook because in the instructions stated dough needed to be mixed.

    I am in the middle of making this recipe and got a bit nervous about the dough and how it was mixed so I though I would ask your opinion. Please let me know how you mixed your dough.

    Thanks.

      Hi Rita, if the ingredients are too wet I normally start with the flat beater and then when I start adding flour I use the dough hook. To simplify your life though, you can start directly with the dough hook. 🙂

    Hey Jo… You were my feature today! I made this yesterday and it was a HUGE success. Just love the presentation.

    Soon I am going to give this same look a try with a stromboli … Can’t think of a reason in the world the presentation wouldn’t work for that as well.

    TERRIFIC!

    Come see what I did here…
