Good afternoon everyone and happy hump day! Today I want to share a yummy Strawberry Cream Cheese Strudel with Y'all. I love pastries, but fruit filled ones are always on the top of my list.
Strawberry pie filling and Greek cream cheese yogurt blended into a baking mix pasty dough are the ingredients for this strawberry strudel. Fruit Strudels are perfect for breakfast, brunch or a sweet after dinner treat.
You can use whatever type of fruit or pie filling that you like. The original recipe called for blueberry pie filling, but we love strawberries, so I used strawberry pie filling. It's really whatever your preference is. I came across this recipe in the Deen Bros Good Cooking magazine about 2 years ago.
It was only a couple days ago that it dawned on me to try and lightening up the recipe a bit. I replaced the brown sugar in the recipe with Truvia's Baking Blend and used low fat milk and a Greek cream cheese & Greek yogurt blend in the filling.
The results were outstanding! I haven't tried the recipe as is, so I can't compare, but I love this lightened up version. Have you tried Truvia's baking blend in any of your recipes? It's really easy.

All the baked goods that I've made using Truvia instead of sugar have baked up and browned perfectly. My family doesn't like change especially when it comes to lightening up their favorite treats, but I have to say my family has been pleasantly surprised with Truvia's Baking Blend. It's so good they don't even know when I'm using it.
I hope you family loves this recipe as much as mine does. Happy Baking!

Question...maybe I missed it, but was there a mention of where the strip came from that finished off the middle of the wrapped pastry? I will cut off a strip from one of the sides, but thought you might want to mention it in the directions. Thanks for such a yummy treat, lightened up!
It was just a strip I added down the middle, because I didn't cut my strips long enough.
