Serves: 8
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
2 cups fresh blueberries
½ cup powdered stevia
2 tbsp cornstarch
4 tbsp butter, melted
2 puff pastry sheets
2 cups cream cheese
2 x 40-gram scoop Blackbelt Whey Protein Concentrate Strawberry
1 large egg
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp lemon extract
¼ cup powdered sugar, for dusting(optional)
Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line some baking paper over a baking sheet and set aside.
Gently rinse the blueberries under cold running water and drain in a large colander.
Combine blueberries, ¼ cup of powdered stevia, cornstarch, and salt in a medium-sized saucepan. Stir well and bring it to a boil over a medium-high temperature. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and transfer to a large bowl. Set aside and chill completely.
Meanwhile, combine cream cheese with lemon extract, and the remaining stevia. Mix until smooth and set aside.
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the egg and set aside.
Unfold the pastry and cut each sheet into 4-inch x 7-inch pieces and brush with egg mixture. Now, add 2 tablespoons of cream cheese mixture and then 2 tablespoons of blueberry mixture in the middle of each pastry. Fold the sheets and brush with the remaining egg mixture. Cut the surface with a sharp knife and gently place each strudel onto a baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes.
