Ingredients
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 4 3/4 cups all-purpose flour plus more for shaping the bread
- 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter cold and cut into small cubes
- 1 cup raisins optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Grease a 9 or 10-inch cake pan, cast iron skillet or pie dish and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk and egg together until combined. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the butter to the flour mixture and work the dough with your fingers until coarse crumbs form. Add the raisins.
- Pour in the buttermilk mixture and gently fold it in until fully combined.
- Sprinkle some flour on the counter and on your hands and gently work the dough into a 9 inch round loaf. Knead the dough for about 1 minute, if the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour.
- Transfer the round loaf into the prepared skillet/pan. Using a sharp knife, make an X on top.
- Bake until the bread is golden brown and the center appears cooked through, about 45-55 minutes. If the bread is browning on top too fast, cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack.
- Slice and serve.
