by Estee Kafra, Cooking with Color

I call this a winter strudel because it uses fruits that are readily accessible throughout the winter season. This strudel is great for advance planning, because it can be made in steps.

Ingredients:

2 lbs. Bartlett pears (peeled, cored and diced)
2 lbs. Golden Delicious or Cortland apples (peeled, cored and diced)
1/2 cup dried cranberries or raisins (or 1/4 cup of each)
1/4 cup dried apricots chopped (see note below)
Juice of half a lemon
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon canola oil or butter
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
1/2 cup finely ground walnuts
1/2 cup additional sugar
Extra oil or melted better for brushing
6-7 sheets of phyllo dough, thawed overnight in refrigerator (see note below)
Confectioners' sugar for sprinkling

Directions:

Place diced pears, apples, cranberries, raisins, chopped dried apricots, lemon juice, 1/4 cup sugar and oil into a large saucepan and cook uncovered over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until fruit is tender.

Remove from fire and let cool 5
