Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 4 cups all-purpose or bread flour; 1 teaspoon baking soda; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 2 tablespoons sugar; 1 teaspoon salt; 1 tablespoon butter (or, as the original recipe calls for, Crisco); 1 cup raisins; 1 cup currants; 1 tablespoon caraway seeds (or more, if you like); 2 cups buttermilk

Servings: persons

4 cups all-purpose or bread flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter (or, as the original recipe calls for, Crisco)
1 cup raisins
1 cup currants
1 tablespoon caraway seeds (or more, if you like)
2 cups buttermilk

1
Preheat oven to 300u00b0 F. Butter and flour a 10-inch cake pan.
2
Whisk together dry ingredients in a medium bowl, then rub the tablespoon of butter into them until very fine. In another medium bowl, combine the raisins, currants, and caraway seeds with a tablespoon of the dry mix, breaking up any clumps of fruit with your fingers. Stir the fruit and seeds into the rest of the dry mix.
3
If you wear rings, remove them now! (Or plan on scraping the dough from the crannies of your jewelry later.) Pour the buttermilk into the dry mix and stir with a wooden spoon until a dough begins to form. When it does, knead the dough into a ball (dusting with flour if you need) until cohesive, about 2 minutes.
4
Place the dough into the pan and bake 60 to 70 minutes, until the crust begins to turn pale gold and makes a hollow sound when you tap it.
