Oatmeal Griddle Cakes

Mrs. J. M. Wetherell.

One cup oatmeal, one cup flour, one teaspoon sugar, one teaspoon Cook's Friend baking powder, one-half teaspoon salt; sift the baking powder in with the flour; add cold water to make a batter of the consistency of buckwheat cakes; beat very well together and bake immediately. This receipt is sufficient for a family of three.
