Brush each rectangle with 3 tablespoons melted butter to within 1 inch of edges. Combine 1/4 cup sugar, cinnamon, and raisins; sprinkle evenly over dough. Beginning at short end of each rectangle, roll up tightly as for jelly roll; pinch seams and ends to seal. Place, seam sides down, in 2 greased 9- x 5-inch loaf pans.Cover; let rise in warm place until doubled, about 30 to 45 minutes. Brush loaves with egg white; sprinkle with Crumb Topping. Bake at 375�F for 40 to 45 minutes or until done. Remove from pans; let cool on wire racks.

Crumb Topping: In small bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon. Cut in 3 tablespoons cold butter or margarine until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
