  • Prepare the Strawberries
    Slice fresh strawberries. If you prefer a chunkier filling, keep the slices larger; otherwise, chop them finely.
  • Assemble the Pastry
    Spoon the cream cheese mixture onto the center of each pastry square and top with sliced strawberries.
  • Prepare the Strudel Topping
    In a bowl, combine melted butter, flour, cinnamon, and brown sugar until crumbly. Sprinkle the topping over the pastries.
  • Egg Wash
    Whisk the egg and brush it over the pastries for a golden finish.
  • Bake the Pastry
    Place the pastries on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and puffed up.
  • Cool and Serve
    Allow the pastries to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy the perfect blend of creamy, fruity, and crunchy!
