_*Fruit Pancakes_--2 cups flour, 2 cups milk, 2 tablespoons Crisco, 2

eggs, nutmeg and salt to taste. Put flour into basin with salt, grated

nutmeg, eggs, pour milk in by degrees, stirring smoothly; beat it well

in order to let the air in, and then let it stand for 1/2 an hour.

This allows starch grains in flour to swell, and so batter is lighter.

When ready to fry, warm Crisco and pour in, stirring at same time.

Make some Crisco hot in a small saucepan, ladle some into a frying

pan, when very hot, pour back into saucepan, but do not drain it, then

ladle sufficient batter in to cover the bottom of pan, shake it gently

over rather a sharp fire, and, when nicely browned, toss it over and

brown other side, turn on to a wire or sieve, sprinkle with sugar

and ripe blackberries. Roll it up, and keep it warm while finishing

remainder of batter. Dish them up on platter, each row crossways to

prevent under ones from becoming sodden. Sprinkle sugar over top and

serve.
