4 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 c. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/3 c. milk
1 egg
1 tsp. baking soda
5 tbsp. butter, softened
1 tbsp. caraway seeds
1/2 c. raisins

In large bowl sift together flour, sugar, baking powder. Add butter to flour mixture and blend. Add butter to flour mixture and blend. Add caraway seeds then raisins, mix together.

In a separate bowl, mix milk, egg and baking soda. Pour milk mixture into flour mixture and mix until dough forms. Place dough on a floured board and knead 8 or 9 times. Grease and flour a 9 inch round baking pan. Place dough in pan and flatten. Make a 1/2 inch deep cross in dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes until golden brown. It's done if it sounds like a hollow drum when you hit it on the bottom.
