Irish Soda Bread

Irish Soda Bread


Ingredients:

3 Cups flour
¾ Cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tarter
1-1/2 cups golden raisins
2 tablespoons butter, softened
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon lemon
1 teaspoon vanilla




Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 350 F.
1.     In a large bowl, whisk together sifted flour, sugar, baking powder, cream of tarter, raisins, and baking soda. Blend in the softened butter
2.     Beat eggs in a small bowl
3.     Mix milk and lemon juice in a third bowl, whip up until it thickens. Let set for 5 minutes
4.     Add vanilla extract to milk/lemon mix
5.     Add all the wet ingredients to the dry and knead together until well blended. If mixture is  too sticky, add more flour until your fingers are no longer sticky.
6.     Put in a pan that is well greased and floured. A large pie pan will work well.
7.     Put a cross on top. Then a little flour or sugar. I like sugar.
8.     Bake at 350 F. for 50 minutes. Check with a toothpick and make sure it comes out dry. If it doesn’t, continue to cook and check until done.

9.     Take it out of the oven and let it cool. Serve it warm with butter. Awesomelicious!! Thanks Maureen Cushing-Weed!!!!
