Ingredients

  • 2 c. flour
  • 2 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 c. milk

Method

  • Mix dry ingredients thoroughly, then add eggs and milk, blending well.
  • With finger over the small hole in funnel, place about 3/4 cup batter in funnel.
  • Holding funnel over hot shortening, remove finger from small funnel hole.
  • Slowly move the funnel in rings until all the batter has run out.
  • When cakes float to the surface and are lightly brown, flip over with a fork, allowing both sides to brown.
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar while warm or top with your favorite preserves.
  • The batter should be a little thicker than pancake batter so that it will run out of the funnel evenly.
  • These cakes can be made in a cast-iron skillet or a deep fryer.
