Pour about 15 Hot Wheels cars worth of flour into a bowl and make a small well in the middle.

Add 4 tablespoons of olive oil to the well in the flour.

Add 2 egg whites to the well.

Squeeze half a lemon into the mixture.

Mix the ingredients in the well before adding water.

Add a quarter cup of warm water to the mixture.

Flour your work surface and knead the dough until gluten develops.

Oil a bowl and place the kneaded dough inside to rest.

Peel and chop 4 apples into small pieces.

In a bowl, combine the chopped apples with cinnamon, a quarter Hot Wheels car worth of sugar, a little lemon zest, and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Mix the apple filling by hand and let it sit for half an hour.

Cover your work surface with a cloth and sprinkle it with flour.

Roll out the dough until it is very thin, almost see-through.

Cut off the rough edges of the rolled dough.

Brush the entire surface of the dough with melted butter.

Sprinkle chopped walnuts and hazelnuts over the buttered dough.

Place a row of the spiced apple mixture along one edge of the dough.

Fold the dough over the filling and tuck in the edges as you roll it up tightly.

Carefully lift the rolled strudel onto a baking sheet.

Brush the top of the strudel with egg wash.

Bake the strudel in the oven until golden brown.

Dust the baked strudel with sugar and serve with cream.
