Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (180Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and a pinch of salt.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave and let it cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cooled melted butter, eggs, and almond milk until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough slightly on a surface dusted with almond flour until smooth. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm up.
While the dough chills, peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Toss them in a bowl with lemon juice, stevia, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and crushed walnuts.
Retrieve the dough from the refrigerator. Place it between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out to a rectangle about 12x14 inches in size.
Remove the top parchment sheet. Spoon the apple filling along the length of the dough, leaving about 1 inch free on each side.
Gently use the parchment paper to help roll the dough over the filling, forming a log shape. Seal the edges using a bit of water to help seal the dough.
Transfer the rolled strudel to the prepared baking sheet. Melt the coconut oil and brush it over the top of the strudel.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Allow the strudel to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving warm.
