| Here is the recipe from my 1943 edition of Fannie Farmer I now ignore that "1/2 for 2" notation |
 |
| cast iron "gem pan" tip: put it in the oven while preheating |
 |
| the ingredients are simple: flour, salt, eggs, butter, milk |
 |
| I mix it all in the blender |
 |
| I wind up filling the cups about 2/3 full |
 |
| here's how they look after 20 min @ 450˚ |
|
| another 15 min @ 350˚ and they're done! |
 |
| while waiting, I get out all the jams this year's array, left to right:
Deborah's fig [too old to eat]
my Raspberry [killer]
my strawberry
Linda's + my Almond Brandy Plum
Linda's + my Plum
