Hominy Gems

Ingredients

  • 2 cupfuls cold hominy
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 cupfuls milk
  • 1 cupful cornmeal
  • 1 teaspoonful salt
  • 1 tablespoonful sugar
  • 2 teaspoonfuls baking powder
  • 1 tablespoonful melted butter

Directions

Put the cornmeal in a mixing bowl, pour over it the scalded milk, beat thoroughly, and when cool add the hominy. Stir in the eggs, whip to a froth, add salt, sugar, baking powder, and butter, beat hard, pour into greased gem pans, and bake in a hot oven. This recipe when thinned with more milk makes delicious griddlecakes.
