4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder

1-2 tablespoons caraway seeds
2 teaspoons butter, cut into small pieces

1. Preheat the oven to 350F. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda.
2. In a large bowl, beat together the sour cream, milk and egg with an electric mixer at medium speed. At low speed, beat in the flour mixture until a soft dough forms. Stir in the raisins and caraway seeds until just combined.
3. Scrape the bread dough into an ungreased 9-inch springform pan. Using the tip of a knife, cut a shallow X in the top of the dough. Place a piece of the butter in each point.
