Place a sheet of phyllo on a greased cookie sheet & spray with buttery Pam.
Repeat until you have 6 layers of phyllo.
In a bowl, combine:
4 pear halves, roughly chopped
1/2 c. craisins
2 T. sugar
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/4 t. nutmeg
1/3 c. walnut pieces.
Spoon this mixture along the long side of the phyllo.
Roll the phyllo up like a burrito, tucking ends in as you roll.
Bake at 350°, 25 minutes.
To serve, I spread a small dollop of some ‘strawbanero’ (hot pepper jelly) on a plate.
Then I zig-zagged some chocolate syrup over that & dragged a fork through it to make it look fancy!
I sliced the strudel into 12 pieces & placed three on each plate.
Topped it with another drizzle of the jelly & put dollops of vanilla yogurt around the edge of the plate.
I SO regret not photographing it . It was almost as pretty as it tasted…
