- With a wooden spoon, gradually stir the hot water and oil into the dry ingredients.

- Let cool.
- Punch down the dough and roll out into a 12-by-18-inch rectangle.
- Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
- Roll in the edges of the dough to form the edge of the crust.
- Drain the raisins and scatter them over the dough.
