Blueberry Strudels
- 3 cups fresh or frozen (not thawed) blueberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- Pinch salt
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan
- 12 (9 by 14-inch) phyllo sheets, thawed if frozen
- In a 4-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, bring the blueberries, 1/4 cup sugar, cornstarch and a pinch of salt to a boil.
- Lower the heat and simmer 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Transfer to a medium bowl and let cool completely.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a sheet pan.
- Cover the phyllo sheets with a piece of plastic wrap and a damp paper towel.
- Arrange 1 sheet of phyllo on a work surface with the short side nearest you (keep the remaining sheets covered) and brush with some butter.
- Top with 2 more phyllo sheets, brushing each sheet with butter.
- Place a heaping 1/4 cup blueberry mixture over the lower third of the buttered phyllo, leaving a 2-inch border along the bottom and sides.
- Fold the bottom edge of the phyllo up over the blueberry mixture and fold in the sides to enclose the filling completely.
- Roll up the phyllo to form a strudel, about 4 by 2 inches.
- Transfer, seam-side down, to the prepared sheet pan.
- Brush the top with some butter and sprinkle with sugar.
- Using a paring knife, cut 2 vents across the top of the strudel.
- Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Bake until golden brown and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Transfer to a rack and cool 20 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
