[Old GoatParticipant]

Wheatless Griddle Cakes

1 cup ground cooked hominy

1 ½ cup rye meal

½ cup barley flour

1 teaspoon salt

3 ½  teaspoon baking powder

2 teaspoons molasses

2 tablespoon melted fat

1 ½ cups milk

2 well beaten eggs

Pass the hominy through a meat grinder (canned hominy may be used)

Put into a mixing bowl, and add rye meal (NOT flour). Mix well and add barley flour sifted with salt and baking powder

Add molasses, fat and beaten eggs, beat mixture thoroughly and cook as griddle cakes. Use plenty of fat or vegetable oil on griddle. The mixture is thick but delicate in texture, and may be baked in  greased muffin rings on a hot griddle or in a hot oven. When turning muffins the rings and muffins are turned together.
