Beat together oil, egg, water and salt. Add flour while beating, until a firm dough which pulls away from bowl is formed. Knead several times until smooth and elastic. Cover; let stand 30 minutes.

Cut with sharp knife into 2 equal parts. Roll out each piece on floured cloth to 12x18-inch rectangle. Brush with melted butter. Sprinkle evenly with breadcrumbs. Spread 4 cups apple on each portion, lengthwise down center of dough. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon rum, 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, 2 tablespoons almonds and 2 tablespoons raisins. Fold dough over apples on one side, then the other. Slice rolls onto greased baking sheet. Brush with melted butter.

Bake 45 minutes at 400°F. Cut each roll into 2-inch slices. Serve warm or cold, sprinkled with confectioners sugar or whipped cream, if desired.
