List of Ingredients
- 1 c. cold butter or margarine

- 1 c. sour cream
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- * * * *
- FILLING:
- 2 c. dry bread crumbs
- 1/4 c. butter or margarine, melted
- 4 medium baking apples, peeled and chopped
- 2 c. sugar
- 1 c. golden raisins
- 1/2 c. chopped pecans
- 2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- Confectioners' sugar, optional
Instructions
- In medium bowl, cut butter into flour until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the sour cream and salt; mix well. Shape into a ball; cover and refrigerate overnight.
- For filling, combine the bread crumbs and butter. Add apples, sugar, raisins, pecans and cinnamon; mix well and set aside.
- Divide dough into thirds; turn onto a floured surface. Roll each into a 15-inch by 12-inch rectangle. Spoon filling evenly onto dough; spread to within 1 inch of edges. Roll up from one long side; pinch seams and ends to seal.
- Carefully place seam side down on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes or until light brown. Cool completely on wire racks. Dust with confectioners' sugar, if desired.
- Yield: 3 loaves.
