=Crushed Wheat Griddle Cakes.=—1 cup crushed wheat, 1½ pints flour, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons Royal Baking Powder, 1 egg, 1 pint milk. Boil 1 cup crushed wheat in ¾ pint of water 1 hour, then dilute with beaten egg and milk. Sift together flour, sugar, salt, and powder; add to crushed wheat preparation when quite cold; mix into smooth batter. Bake on hot griddle; brown delicately on both sides; serve with hygienic cream sauce. =Corn Meal Griddle Cakes.=—2 cups corn meal, 1 cup flour, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon molasses, 2 teaspoons Royal Baking Powder, milk or milk and water to mix to thin batter. Bake as already directed. =Indian Griddle Cakes.=-⅔ quart corn meal, ⅓ quart flour, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, 2 heaping teaspoons Royal Baking Powder, 2 eggs, 1 pint milk. Sift together corn meal, flour, salt, sugar, and powder, add beaten eggs and milk, mix into a smooth batter. Bake on very hot griddle to a nice brown. Serve with molasses or maple syrup. =Royal Buckwheats.=—This is the most delicious of all the griddle cakes. It has been against buckwheat cakes when made from yeast or risen overnight that it was difficult to make them light and sweet, and that disagreeable effects followed their eating. It is found that by the use of the Royal Baking Powder to raise the batter these objections have been entirely overcome, and that buckwheat cakes are made a most delicious food, light, sweet, tender, and perfectly wholesome, that can be eaten by any one without the slightest digestive inconvenience. 2 cups pure buckwheat (do not use the so-called “prepared” or “self-raising” flours), 1 cup wheat flour, 2 tablespoons Royal Baking Powder, ½ teaspoon salt, all sifted well together. Mix with sweet milk into thin batter, and bake at once on a hot griddle. =Buckwheat Cakes.=—To 1½ pints pure buckwheat flour (never use prepared or self-raising flour) add ¼ pint each wheat flour and Indian meal, 3 heaping teaspoons Royal Baking Powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon brown sugar or molasses. Sift well together,
