Batter Cakes

Ingredients

• 2 cups of small homony
• 2 cups of corn meal
• salt
• 1 large spoonful of butter
• 3 eggs
• milk

Instructions

Boil the homony very soft; add the corn meal with a little salt, and the butter; make it in a thin batter with the eggs, and a sufficient quantity of milk; beat all together some time, and bake them on a griddle, or in woffle irons. When eggs cannot be procured, yeast makes a good substitute; put a spoonful in the batter, and let it stand an hour to rise.
