For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg or ginger to the dry ingredients.
To prevent the nuts and raisins from sinking to the bottom of the cake, toss them with a tablespoon of flour before adding them to the batter.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice to 3/4 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
The cake can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
