One and one-quarter cups of milk,
One egg,
Two tablespoons of syrup,
Two tablespoons of shortening.
Beat hard to mix and then add
One and one-quarter cups of sifted flour,
Three-quarters cup of cornmeal,
Five teaspoons of baking powder.
Beat thoroughly to mix and then pour into well-greased muffin pans and bake for thirty-five minutes in a hot oven. Now cut from the top one slice from each of the four muffins and use a spoon to scoop out the centres. Break an egg and then fill to the top with cheese sauce. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and set in a baking pan and bake for twenty minutes in a moderate oven. Serve with either cream or tomato sauce.
