Read my review of this recipe.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups raisins
- 2 teaspoons caraway seeds
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup sour cream
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a two loaf pans, four mini loaf pans, or a 9 inch round cake pan.
In a mixing bowl, combine flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, raisins and caraway seeds. In a small bowl, blend eggs, buttermilk and sour cream. Stir the liquid mixture into flour mixture just until flour is moistened. Knead dough in bowl about 10 to 12 strokes. Dough will be sticky. Place the dough in the prepared pan and pat down. Cut a 4×3/4 inch deep slit in the top of the bread. Sprinkle with additional sugar.
Bake for 65 to 75 minutes (loaf or cake pan) or 25 minutes (mini-loaves) or until a toothpick comes out clean.. Let cool and turn bread onto a wire rack.
