• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 12

Ingredients

• 3 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour (15 3/4 ounces)
• 1  teaspoon baking soda
• 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 cup golden raisin
• 2  teaspoons sugar
• 1 2⁄3 cups buttermilk
• 1  large egg, lightly beaten

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°.
2. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl; stir in raisins and sugar.
3. Combine buttermilk and egg; add to flour mixture, stirring until dough forms. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead lightly 4 times with floured hands (dough will be sticky).
4. Divide dough into 12 equal portions, shaping each into a ball (cover remaining dough to prevent drying). Arrange rolls on a lightly floured baking sheet.
5. Bake at 425° for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 400° (do not remove rolls from oven); bake an additional 8 minutes or until rolls sound hollow when tapped.
