Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350. Open up crescent roll dough and roll out between two sheets of parchment paper until the dough is one solid piece and slightly bigger than normal. Cut strips down each side of the dough, leaving a 2½ - 3 inch section in the center uncut.
Spoon pie filling down the middle of the dough, and fold over the strips alternating sides as you go and making a criss-cross pattern.
Sprinkle raw sugar over dough and press very lightly if needed to adhere sugar to the dough.
Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes, or until the dough is evenly golden brown.
Remove from oven and let braid cool completely.
Mix powdered sugar with lemon juice until the mixture is smooth, and drizzle over the braid.
