Bread-Crumb Cakes
Golden griddle cakes with browned breadcrumbs and nutmeg.
Method
Steps
Step 1
Sift the flour into a mixing bowl. Add the eggs, icing sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg, then pour in the cold milk. Whisk until smooth and thickened.
Step 2
Melt half an ounce of butter in a saucepan. Add the fresh breadcrumbs and toss over heat until golden brown. Drain thoroughly on a clean cloth, then fold all the browned crumbs into the batter.
Step 3
Lightly grease a hot frying pan with a little melted lard. Ladle rounds about two and a half inches across, up to four at a time without crowding. Cook for about one and a half minutes per side, turning once. Continue until browned and set through with no wet batter; check the centres reach 160°F (71.1°C).
Step 4
Repeat with the remaining batter, lightly regreasing the pan as needed. Transfer the cooked cakes to a warm plate and serve warm with maple syrup separately.
