Ingredients

Pastry Dough

  • 2 cups (280g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp (13g) granulated sugar
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup cold vegan butter, cubed
  • cup + 3 tbsp cold unsweetened, non-dairy milk
  • Egg wash: 1 egg + 1 tbsp non-dairy milk (or sub just non-dairy milk, if vegan)
  • Raw/turbinado sugar, for topping

Pistachio Filling

  • 1 cup pistachios, finely chopped
  • ¼ cup (54g) granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup (86g) honey (sub maple syrup, if vegan)
  • 1 tsp lemon zest

Topping

  • ¼ cup white chocolate chips (see notes for vegan brand)
  • cup finely chopped pistachios

Instructions

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.
