Ingredients:

� 4 cups all-purpose flour
� 1/4 cup sugar
� 1 teaspoon baking soda
� 2 teaspoons baking powder
� 1 teaspoon salt
� 2 large eggs
� 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
� 1/4 cup corn oil
� 2 teaspoons caraway seeds
� 1 cup golden raisins
� 1 tablespoon milk

Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 350�F. Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, stir the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt together. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, buttermilk, and oil together. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the buttermilk mixture. Add the caraway seeds and raisins. Stir until a soft dough has formed.

Shape the dough into a large ball on a lightly floured board (flour your hands if necessary for easier handling). With a sharp knife, make a cross on the top. Place on the prepared pan. Brush the top with the milk. Bake in the center of the oven until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes.
