4 eggs.
1 pint milk.
4 tablespoonfuls flour.
1 tablespoonful butter.
Apples or peaches cut in thin slices, and dropped in the batter. Serve with sauce.—Mrs. Dr. S.
Baked Peach Dumplings.
Make up one quart of flour as for soda biscuit. Roll like pastry, putting on bits of lard or butter several times. Make out the dough like biscuit, roll thin and on each piece put two or three pieces of canned peaches. (Peach preserves or marmalade would answer also.) Add a teaspoonful of butter, and (if you use canned peaches) a tablespoonful of sugar to each dumpling. Draw the edges firmly together and place them in a deep, large baking-dish. Put sugar and butter between, and pour, over all, the syrup from the can. (Use a three-pound can for this quantity of flour.) Bake quickly and serve with or without sauce. A good substitute for the old-fashioned "pot peach pie." Baked apple dumplings may be made in the same way.—Mrs. S. T.
Currant Pudding.
1 pound currants.
