Prepare the pastry by letting it stand at room temperature to avoid cracking.

Cut the puff pastry to size, marking it into thirds and cutting strips about 1 cm wide for the lattice top.

Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat until fully melted, avoiding boiling.

Juice the lemon and set aside.

Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin slices.

Mix the sliced apples with raisins, cinnamon, and lemon juice in a bowl.

Place breadcrumbs down the center of the pastry to absorb juices from the filling.

Add the apple and raisin mixture on top of the breadcrumbs, packing it in tightly.

Brush melted butter over the apple filling.

Sprinkle sugar over the top of the filling.

Fold the pastry over the filling, using egg wash to seal each fold.

Egg wash the entire strudel before placing it on a baking tray.

Bake in the oven at 180°C for about 20-25 minutes, checking for a golden brown color.

Let the strudel cool before slicing and serving, optionally with homemade ice cream.
