Mix flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.

Warm milk and butter until melted, then let cool slightly.

Add the milk mixture and water to the dry ingredients, stirring until combined.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Punch down the risen dough and roll it out into a rectangle.

Spread sour cream evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.

Add raisins and walnuts evenly across the surface.

Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut into equal pieces.

Place the pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.

Let cool slightly before serving.
