2 cups flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup raisins, or currants
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup sour cream
1 egg, slightly beaten
3 tablespoons milk

Preheat oven to 425F. In a large bowl, combine first six ingredients.

Add remaining ingredients and mix by hand until dough is uniformly moistened. Turn onto floured board and knead 12 to 15 times. Divide dough into two equal sized balls. By hand, pat each ball into a 6 inch round. Sprinkle each round lightly with sugar. Cut each round into six wedges and place wedges on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until done. Serve warm.
