1 3/4 c. sifted flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 c. raisins
1 c. (8 1/2 oz.) crushed pineapple in syrup, not drained
3/4 c. sugar
3 tbsp. soft butter
2 eggs, unbeaten
3/4 c. chopped walnuts

Measure first four ingredients into bowl, stir; set aside. Rinse raisins with boiling water to plump them; drain well, set aside with walnuts. Gradually beat sugar into butter. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add raisins and nuts. Sift in about half the flour mixture; stir (don't beat) just until moistened and fairly smooth. Add pineapple with its syrup; then stir in rest of flour mixture. Quickly but gently spoon the heavy batter into greased 9 x 5 x 3 inch pan. Bake 45-60 minutes at 350 degrees. Sprinkle with any topping
