Fritters

Ingredients

• 4 eggs
• 1 scant cupful of milk
• 1 small teaspoon of salt
• baking powder
• flour

Instructions

Beat the eggs very light. Do not separate yolks and whites but beat together about five minutes; add the milk, salt and just a dash of baking powder (about as large as a small bean). Quickly whisk in enough sifted flour to make a thin pan cake batter. Beat smooth. Drop by spoonfuls into deep smoking hot lard and fry like doughnuts. Drain, and serve immediately with maple syrup, honey or jelly sauce.
