- Heat oven to 450 degrees. Brush a large baking pan with melted butter. Set aside. Combine almonds and walnuts in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Peel core and cut apples into 1/4-inch slices. Combine apples, raisins, 2 Tbsp. sugar, lemon zest, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Bring 3/4 c. water and cornstarch to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring constantly till thick and smooth. Add in 4 remaining Tbsp. sugar, and stir till dissolved. Pour over apples. Stir to combine.
- Place a sheet of phyllo on a flat work surface to create a square. Brush with butter. Place a second sheet over the first. Brush with butter. Repeat four times.
- Spread 1/4 c. nuts over bottom one-third of phyllo in a 1-inch-wide line parallel to and about 3 inches from the edge of pastry. Top with a sheet of phyllo. Brush with butter. Spread half of apple mix in a 3 1/2-inch-wide line covering the nuts; sprinkle with cinnamon. Top with a sheet of phyllo. Brush with butter. Mix in right and left sides of phyllo about 1 inch. Fold phyllo over once to cover apples. Brush with butter. Roll like a cigar almost to end, brushing all surfaces with butter. Mix in ragged edges, and brush with butter. Finish rolling, and place seam-side down in prepared pan.
- Brush with butter. Cut six 1-inch diagonal slits in top of roll. With fingers, slightly widen slits. Repeat with remaining phyllo and filling.
- Transfer to oven, and bake till golden brown, about 10 min. Lower heat to 350 degrees. Continue baking till juices are bubbling and apples are tender when pierced with a knife, 30 to 40 min more.
