Carrot, Banana, Apple Roll up * RECIPE | vegan

Hello,
I have a new vegan recipe for you this week. I tried to do a traditional fruit roll up or as many of you know it a traditional Austrian strudel that would be vegan and tasty as well. I decided to go with filling made out of carrots, apples and bananas but I'm sure you can try it with any fruit you like or combine in some poppy seed or cottage cheese.


Ingredients:
For the dough
250 g of spelt flour
1/2 of banana
100 ml of water
1 tbsp of coconut oil

For the filling
1kg of apples
500 g of carrots
1 and 1/2 of banana
1 vanilla sugar
1 tbsp of cinnamon
150 g of shredded nuts
coconut oil

So first you're going to start with the dough. Heat up the coconut oil and then in a large bowl combine the flour, the banana, the water and the oil.


Mash the banana with a fork and start to form a thick dough. If you feel like the flour isn't sticking to the dough anymore add a little bit more of the banana that should help to pick up all of the flour. When your dough is done you can let it sit on a counter while you prepare the filling.


Before you start making the filling preheat your oven to 160°C(320F°). Start by shredding your nuts if you haven't bought some that were already shredded.


 Then in a food processor or by hand cut your apples, carrots and banana into small pieces or you can grate them like cheese.

When you're done, take a larger bowl and mix your fruit mixture with some cinnamon and vanilla sugar, also add 100 g of shredded nuts for added flavor.


Now it's time to start rolling the dough, split the dough in two parts and roll them individually. I would suggest rolling the dough on some baking paper because it's going to be easier to transfer then.

Then when you have to rectangular dough shaped that are couple millimeters thick you can use a little bit of coconut oil and spread it all over the dough. After that sprinkle the rest of the nuts on to your dough and start putting the fruit mixture evenly on top of the nuts.


Make sure to squeeze out the juice out of the mixture before using it because that will lead to major leaking during the baking process.

Last step is just to roll the dough and your roll up is ready. I have done a mistake and I haven't used baking paper underneath it so I ended up tearing the roll up a little but it doesn't really matter the dough is going to keep it all nicely together.


Bake for 35 minutes and let it cool. There's a big chance that there's going to be a lot of juice leaked everywhere and that the roll up is going to tear on the sides but that's completely normal and happens almost every time. The good side of things is that this dough seems to really keep it's shaped after it has cooled down a bit.

And that's it a delicious, healthy vegan version of the traditional Austrian strudel, I hope that you get to try this recipe because everyone in my family just loves it, it's fruity, juicy and has a little bit of a banana bread taste. Thanks for reading bye :)
