Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C) and prepare a baking sheet, cast iron skillet, or cake pan.
Whisk together buttermilk and egg in a small bowl. In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add raisins if using, then pour in the wet mixture. Gently mix until a stiff dough forms.
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface, shape into a ball, and knead lightly for about 30 seconds. Transfer to pan and score an X on top.
Bake for 45–55 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Cool slightly before serving.
