CREAM FRITTERS
This is great Aunt Mary Lane’s recipe. She shared this recipe with me better than fifty years ago. Cream fritters look a lot like fried donut holes.
5 egg whites,1 cup evaporated milk, 2 cups cake flour, 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/8 teaspoon salt.
Get out a bowl, add the cream while beating vigorously slowly add the egg whites and flour. Add the nutmeg, baking powder, and salt. Continue to beat until the batter is thick. Get out a skillet add 2 tablespoons of lard, heat to medium-high 325 degrees. Scoop up a heaping tablespoon of the batter. Roll into a ball, carefully add to the lard, and fry. Drain on paper towels. Serve with jelly and dust with powdered sugar.
