Gather @phyllo dough{300%g}, @walnut{80%g}, @raisin{60%g} and @ground cinnamon{2%tsp}.

Toss the sliced apples with the @sugar{100%g}, cinnamon and @lemon{0.5} juice; let sit 10 minutes so they release some juice, then drain briefly. ~{10%minutes}

Lay out a clean cloth and stack the phyllo sheets on it, brushing each with melted @butter{100%g} and scattering toasted @breadcrumbs{40%g} between every second layer.

Spread the @apple{900%g} mixture, walnuts and raisins along one long edge, leaving a clear border on the sides.

Using the cloth to help, roll the pastry up into a tight log, tucking in the ends as you go.

Transfer seam-side down to a baking sheet and brush the top generously with the remaining butter.

Bake at 190°C until deeply golden and crisp, 35–40 minutes. ~{38%minutes}

Cool slightly, dust with @powdered sugar{2%tbsp}, and slice while still a little warm.
