Mixture will be slightly crumbly. In a small bowl, slowly whisk warm water into beaten egg; add to flour mixture, mixing well. Beat in remaining oil until smooth. Transfer to a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rest in a warm place about 30 minutes. Set oven @ 350°F/175°C. Spread bread crumbs into an ungreased 15x10x1" baking pan. Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Cool completely. Tape a 30x15" sheet of parchment onto a work surface; dust lightly with flour. Divide dough in half; place 1 portion on parchment and roll to a very thin 24x15" rectangle. Keep remaining dough covered. Remove tape from parchment. Sprinkle 3/4 cup bread crumbs over rectangle to within 1" of edges. Starting 3" from a short side, sprinkle 3 cups apples and 1/4 cup raisins over a 3"-wide section of dough. Mix sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle half of the mixture over fruit. Drizzle with half of the melted butter. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting at fruit-covered end and lifting with parchment; fold in sides of dough as you roll to contain filling. Using parchment, transfer strudel to a 15x10x1" baking pan; trim parchment to fit pan. Bake on lowest oven rack 45 to 55 minutes or until golden brown, brushing top with sour cream 2 times while baking. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Using parchment, transfer to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature. Recipe by Darlene Brenden, Salem, Oregon Recipe FROM: https://www.tasteofhome.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM
