Ingredients

Units: US Metric
  • 1⅓ cups flour
  • 2½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon melted butter
Make it lactose-friendly

Steps

  1. Beat egg until light; add milk, dry ingredients mixed and sifted, and melted butter. Drop by spoonfuls in hot, new, deep fat; fry until light brown and cooked through, which must at first be determined by piercing with a skewer, or breaking apart. Remove with a skimmer, and drain on brown paper.
