Grandma Jane's Irish Soda Bread

We first had this with Jane's corned beef and cabbage for St. Patrick's Day, but it is also very good with soups and stews, or anything else for that matter!

1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 tbsp melted butter
1 beaten egg
1 1/2 cups raisins
3 cups flour
2/3 cup sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt

Grease a 9x5 loaf pan. Combine the dry ingredients and raisins. Add the liquids. Mix. Spoon into the pan. Bake for 50 minutes at 350 degrees
