Maize Muffins

This very latest preparation deserves special mention, as being the highest and most scientific product of corn that has been introduced for public consideration. It is known as shredded maize, and from it a most excellent porridge can be made in ten minutes. Griddle cakes, sweet puddings, and especially breakfast rolls made of it are delightful. Most excellent muffins are prepared as follows:

Ingredients

• 1 pound of shredded maize
• 1 pint of hot milk
• 1 teaspoonful of salt
• 1 ounce of butter
• 3 beaten eggs
• 1 ounce of sugar
• 2 teaspoonfuls of wheat baking powder

Instructions

Mix together the shredded maize, hot milk, salt, and butter; let it cool, and whisk into it the beaten eggs, sugar, and wheat baking powder; mix thoroughly; half fill the muffin-rings, and bake in a hot oven.
