Indian Muffins

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pints of yellow Indian meal
• 1 handful of wheat flour
• 1/4 pound of fresh butter
• 1 quart of milk
• 4 eggs
• 1 small tea-spoonful of salt

Instructions

Sift and mix together the Indian meal and wheat flour. Melt the butter in the milk. Beat the eggs very light, and stir into them alternately (a little at a time of each) the milk when it is quite cold, and the meal; adding the salt. The whole must be beaten long and hard. Then butter some muffin rings; set them on a hot griddle, and pour some of the batter into each.

Send the muffins to table hot, and split them by pulling them open with your fingers, as a knife will make them heavy. Eat them with butter, molasses or honey.
