Step by Step Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Combine 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, then sprinkle your work surface with the sugar cinnamon mixture.
Step 3
Unfold 1 of the pie crusts and place it on the surface dusted with sugar and cinnamon. Roll to an even thickness. Spread half the jam (2/3 cup) evenly over the crust. Sprinkle with half the nuts and half the raisins (2/3 cup each).
Step 4
Starting at one end of the dough, roll it tightly into a log.
Step 5
Using a knife, trim 1 inch on each end. Cut the roll into about 1-inch thick slices. Place the slices, sugared-side up, on the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Repeat method with the remaining crust.
Step 6
Bake until golden, 22 to 25 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack.
