Cooking Time: 30 minutes

Total Time: 1 hour

For the Dough:

• 250g all-purpose flour
• 60ml warm water
• 60ml warm milk
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg, beaten

For the Filling:

• 150g poppy seeds, ground
• 100g granulated sugar
• 120ml milk
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 60g unsalted butter
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• Zest of 1 lemon
• Zest of 1 orange
• 60g raisins (optional)

For the Topping:

• 30g powdered sugar

1. Prepare the Dough:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt.
   • In a separate bowl, mix warm water, warm milk, vegetable oil, and beaten egg.
   • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, and knead until a smooth dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
   • Form the dough into a ball, cover it with a clean cloth, and let it rest for about 30 minutes.
2. Prepare the Filling:
   • In a saucepan, combine ground poppy seeds, granulated sugar, milk, vanilla extract, unsalted butter, ground cinnamon, lemon zest, and orange zest.
   • Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, for about 10 minutes until it thickens. If using raisins, add them during this step.
   • Remove from heat and let the filling cool.
3. Assemble the Mohnstrudel:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
   • Roll out the rested dough on a floured surface into a thin rectangle, about 1/8-inch thick.
   • Spread the cooled poppy seed filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
   • Carefully roll up the dough, tucking in the edges as you go, to form a log. Place the seam side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Bake:
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the Mohnstrudel is golden brown and crispy.
5. Serve:
   • Allow the Mohnstrudel to cool slightly, then dust with powdered sugar.
   • Slice, serve, and enjoy your homemade Austrian Mohnstrudel!
