*Fruit Pancakes
Coffee_
_*Fruit Pancakes_--2 cups flour, 2 cups milk, 2 tablespoons Crisco, 2
eggs, nutmeg and salt to taste. Put flour into basin with salt, grated
nutmeg, eggs, pour milk in by degrees, stirring smoothly; beat it well
in order to let the air in, and then let it stand for 1/2 an hour.
This allows starch grains in flour to swell, and so batter is lighter.
When ready to fry, warm Crisco and pour in, stirring at same time.
Make some Crisco hot in a small saucepan, ladle some into a frying
pan, when very hot, pour back into saucepan, but do not drain it, then
ladle sufficient batter in to cover the bottom of pan, shake it gently
over rather a sharp fire, and, when nicely browned, toss it over and
brown other side, turn on to a wire or sieve, sprinkle with sugar
and ripe blackberries. Roll it up, and keep it warm while finishing
remainder of batter. Dish them up on platter, each row crossways to
prevent under ones from becoming sodden. Sprinkle sugar over top and
serve.
