Notes

Written in nan's book as: 1 1/2 cups flour, 3 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1 TBS sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 1/4 cups milk, 1 egg, 3 TBS melted butter, 1 tsp vanilla, opt.

There is no method on the page. The steps here are the ordinary way, written out so the recipe is usable.

The vanilla is marked optional in her hand.
