1950’s Breakfast Ideas!

Hello Darlings! In this weeks video I spent the week trying out and thoroughly enjoying some 1940’s and 1950’s breakfast recipes! Breakfast can easily become mundane when you always eat the same old thing, so it was nice to spice up the breakfast game and try out some new ideas! I will be adding these into my breakfast rotations because yummmoo they were good! Let me know if you try any of these out, I would love to hear your thoughts!
Lots of love,

Tomato and Egg on Fried Bread:
4 Tomatoes
2 Thick Slices of Bread
2 Eggs
2 or 3 ozs. Beef Dripping
Salt and Pepper

Method:
Stalk, wipe and halve the tomatoes. Fry them gently till they are tender, in half an ounce of dripping. Melt the remainder of the dripping in another pan. Add the bread and fry it slowly until it is beginning to brown, turning it over once or twice. When the bread is ready, lift it on to a hot dish and top it with the fried tomatoes. Sprinkle these with pepper and salt and keep the tomatoes on toast warm, while the eggs are frying. Then top each tomato toast with a fried egg.

For a change, the fried egg can be served on the fried bread without the tomatoes; or the fried tomatoes can be served alone on the fried bread.

Griddle Cakes:
1 1/4 cups sifted enriched flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 beaten egg
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons salad oil or melted shortening or bacon fat

Sift flour with baking powder, sugar, and salt. Combine egg, milk, and shortening. Add to dry ingredients, stirring just till flour is moistened. Batter will be lumpy. Bake on ungreased griddle.

When underside of griddle cakes are nicely browned, sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of washed and drained blueberries over each cake. Turn and brown. Makes 6 to 8 cakes.

Baked Apples:
Select large, good quality baking apples. Wash; remove core. Place in baking pan. In centre of each apple, place 1 to 2 tablespoons brown or granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon butter.

Pour 1 cup water around apples and bake uncovered in moderate oven (375 F / 190 C) for 45 – 60 minutes or until tender. Baste apples several times while they are baking.

Apple centres may be filled with chopped dates, raisins, mincemeat, or cranberries.

Fritter Batter:
1 1/3 cups sifted enriched flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt

Use 1 1/2 cups drained; whole kernel corn. Serve fritters with maple syrup.
(I served my corn fritters with avocado and kewpie mayonnaise)
