How to make White Chocolate Pistachio Toaster Strudels:

Pastry Dough

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Use your fingertips or a pastry cutter to cut butter into the flour until incorporated (butter should be about pea-sized).
2. Slowly drizzle in cold milk and stir until a soft dough forms. You may need to get in with your hands to fully incorporate the milk.  
3. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface. Form into a rough mound and divide in half. Flatten each half into a 1″ thick disc and tightly wrap with plastic wrap. Refrigerate dough for at least 2 hours. 

Pistachio Filling

1. Combine all filling ingredients in a medium-sized bowl. Set aside.  

Assembly

1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove 1 dough disc from the fridge. Transfer to a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough out to an 8×6.5″ rectangle. Cut off any rough edges. Cut into four, equal-sized small rectangles. Transfer the rectangles to prepared baking sheet. Transfer to the fridge. 
2. Repeat previous step with remaining dough disc. To half of the small rectangles, place 2 tbsp of filling into the center. Brush egg wash or non-dairy milk along the edges. Place another rectangle on top. Seal the strudel by crimping the edges with a fork. Pierce the center of each sealed strudel with the fork. Refrigerate shaped strudels for 15 minutes.  
3. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Before baking, brush each strudel with egg wash or non-dairy milk. Sprinkle over raw sugar. Bake toaster strudels for 30-32 minutes until golden brown. Cool for 15 minutes on the baking sheet.  
4. Add strudels to a wire cooling rack placed on top of a baking sheet. Melt white chocolate. Drizzle over white chocolate and sprinkle with chopped pistachios.  

Why you’ll love these White Chocolate Pistachio Toaster Strudels:

Flaky & buttery. The pastry is oh-so buttery and flaky and it’s 100% vegan!

Filled with a crunchy pistachio filling. This filling is out of this world delicious. It’s filled with lots of chopped pistachios coated in granulated sugar, honey, and lemon zest.

Customizable. Feel free to get creative with this recipe! Although I highly recommend trying out pistachio filling, you could also fill the toaster strudels with stewed apples, jam, stewed pears, or a cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Can I make this recipe gluten-free?

I have not tested a gluten-free version of this recipe. Feel free to do some testing yourself to see how it turns out! I’ve heard great successes in other baked goods with Bob’s Red Mill 1-1 GF flour.

Can I switch up the filling?

Definitely! Feel free to get creative with this recipe. You could fill them with jam, stewed apples or pears, or a cinnamon-sugar mixture.

How do I store the toaster strudels?

Store the toaster strudels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. These are best the day-of.

What vegan butter do you use?

Any vegan butter works well! My personal favorites are Country Crock Plant Butter (I also found that’s the most affordable) and Earth Balance.
