1
Make the Dough
In a food processor, pulse together the flour and salt. Just a few taps should do it. Add the butter, cream cheese, and sour cream and pulse to form a crumbly dough. Turn the dough out and divide equally into three portions. Flatten each portion into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap, then chill for at least 2 hours.
2
Make the Filling
In the food processor again, pulse together the brown sugar, walnuts, raisins, and cinnamon until you have a moist crumble.
3
Prepare baking trays
Line 3 large rimmed baking sheets with parchment or silicone baking mats.
4
Roll out the dough
Remove the dough from the fridge. Working with one disc of dough at a time on a lightly floured surface, roll out into a 10" circle that's about 1/4" thick. Brush the surface lightly with water. Spread 1/3 of the filling on top. Press the filling down into the dough so it sticks.
5
Slice and Roll
Slice the dough into 8 equal wedges. Roll each wedge up like a croissant, starting with the wide end and ending with the narrow end. Place the rolls with the pointed side down onto the baking sheets.
6
Preheat oven to 350°F
7
Bake for 25-30 minutes
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes.
