Instructions: Cover the bread with cold water until soft, then place it in a very fine sieve, and press out as much water as possible. Add to the egg yolks, sugar, raisins, cinnamon, and almonds. Blend well. Beat the egg whites until stiff and fold into the batter. Melt the shortening on a pancake griddle, and when it is hot, turn the heat to medium. Drop large tablespoonfuls of the batter into the shortening. Flatten slightly. Cook over medium heat until the bottom is brown, turn over, and brown the other side. Serve with stewed fruit. This makes 14.

[[Spike would use about 2 cups baking mix - such as Bisquick - and all the other ingredients, instead of bread. I guess this recipe is for people who have too much bread. It would be a good way to use stale bread, also. Cinnamon and raisins, maybe even some fresh berries would be good on this.]]
