3 eggs
1/2 cupful sugar
3 tablespoonfuls Crisco
1-1/2 cupfuls honey
1 cupful sour milk
1 teaspoonful baking soda
1 teaspoonful cream of tartar
1 teaspoonful lemon extract
5-3/4 cupfuls flour
1 teaspoonful salt
Cream Crisco, honey and sugar well together, then add eggs well
beaten, mix well, add milk, lemon extract, flour, salt, soda, and
cream of tartar. Mix and turn out on baking board, roll out and cut
with doughnut cutter. Fry in plenty of hot Crisco. If a piece of
bread browns in hot Crisco in sixty seconds, temperature is right for
doughnuts and fritters.
Sufficient for sixty-five doughnuts.
