Recipe from Diane Mott Davidson's culinary mystery The Cereal Murders.
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 cup raisins
1 tablespoon caraway seed
1 large egg
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup sour cream
Directions:
1. Set oven to 350°F
2. Butter a 9-inch round cake pan.
3. Sift together the dry ingredients.
4. Using a food processor with the steel blade or a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles small peas.
5. Blend in the raisins and caraway seeds.
6. Beat the egg, buttermilk, and sour cream together until blended.
7. Stir the egg mixture into the dry mixture just until blended.
8. Transfer the batter to the pan and bake for about 50 to 55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
