Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Vinegar
- 2 cups Milk (I Use 2%)
- 4 cups Flour
- 1/2 cups Sugar, Plus 1 Tablespoon For Sprinkling
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, At Room Temperature
- 1 cup Raisins
- 2 Tablespoons Butter, Melted
Method
- Set the oven at 375 degrees. Butter a 10-inch round cake or springform pan.
- In a small bowl, stir the vinegar into the milk and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter. Stir in the raisins.
- Stir in the milk with a fork just until combined.
- Transfer the dough to the pan. Using a sharp knife, cut a cross in the middle of the bread. Brush the melted butter over the top and sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar.
- Bake the bread for 10 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 350 and continue baking for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a skewer inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean.
- Cool the bread in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Turn the bread out of the pan and leave to cool completely.
