Irish Soda Bread

4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1 Tbsp butter, melted (for brushing top)
2/3 cup sugar
1 cup raisins
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs, beaten
1 cups milk can try 3/4 cup milk

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Oven must be hot and ready when you mix in
the liquid. In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients EXCEPT the 1
Tbsp butter; mix just until moistened. Place in a greased 9-inch round
baking pan and bake for one hour or until a knife inserted in the center
comes out clean. After removing from oven, brush the top with the 1 Tbsp
melted butter. Makes 6-8 servings.
