Instructions: Mix apples with raisins, lemon rind, sugar, cinnamon, and almonds. Set aside. Place 1 fillo leaf on a kitchen towel and brush with melted margarine. Place a second leaf on top and brush with butter again.

Repeat until 5 leaves have been used, using about 1/2 c of margarine.

Cook and stir breadcrumbs with 1/4 c of margarine until lightly browned. Sprinkle 3/4 cup breadcrumbs on the layered fillo leaves.

Mound 1/2 of the filling in a 3" strip along the narrow end of the fillo, leaving a 2-inch border. Lift towel, using it to roll leaves over apples, jelly roll fashion. Brush top of the strudel with margarine and sprinkle with 2 T crumbs. Repeat the entire procedure for the second strudel. Bake the strudels at 400F for 20 to 25 minutes, until browned.

Makes 2 strudels, 6 to 8 servings each.
