-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 c All purpose/bread flour
3 ts Baking powder
1 t Salt to taste
3/4 ts Baking soda
1 c Raisins
2 Eggs
1 1/2 c Buttermilk

Stir flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda and
raisins together. Separately, fork-blend eggs and
buttermilk, then add to dry ingredients. Stir until
sticky batter is formed. Scrape batter onto well
floured surface and knead lightly. Shape batter into
ball, then place in round non-stick casserole that has
been sprayed with cooking spray. Mark a cross in the
center, using a sharp knife. Bake uncovered in
preheated 350 degree oven for about 1 1/4 hours.

Wait 10-15 minutes before attempting to remove bread
from casserole, then cool on wire rack. If desired,
cut loaf into quarters and then slice thinly.
