4 c. flour
4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg, beaten
1 c. milk
2 tbsp. butter, melted
1 c. raisins

Pour boiling water over raisins and let stand 5 minutes. Mix dry ingredients. Make a well in center and add egg, milk and butter. Mix lightly with a wooden spoon. Knead lightly. Fold in drained raisins. Bake in tube pan or iron skillet. Bake in 350 degree oven for 45-50 minutes or until it tests done.

I use Aunt Jemima flour and forget baking powder and soda. Also I use 2 loaf pans.
