Directions
Adjust the oven rack to the lower third of the oven.
Preheat the oven to 375℉ (190℃).
Grease and flour a large baking sheet.
Sift the dry ingredients (except the brown sugar) into a large bowl.
Add the brown sugar, shortening, egg, and buttermilk and beat with an electric mixer until the batter is blended and smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Stir in raisins.
Drop the batter by the heaping tablespoonful onto the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle each mound with ½ teaspoon sugar.
Bake about 15 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
