Ingredients

Servings

• 2 pound Sweet potatoes
• 1 sheet Puff pastry
• 4 tablespoon Butter
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 1 cup Cranberries
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 beaten Egg

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Peel and dice the sweet potatoes. Boil them until tender, then drain and mash.
3. In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the mashed sweet potatoes, brown sugar, cranberries, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a floured surface. Spread the sweet potato mixture evenly on top, leaving a border around the edges.
5. Roll up the pastry tightly, tucking in the ends. Place the strudel on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
6. Brush the strudel with beaten egg and make a few slits on top for steam to escape.
7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.
8. Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter in a small saucepan until it turns brown and develops a nutty aroma.
9. Remove the strudel from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Drizzle the brown butter over the top.
10. Slice and serve warm.
