My husband believe it or not makes this recipe. It has been handed down from his Great Grandparents!! **Note: you have to use real buttermilk liquid in this. I try it with powdered buttermilk and the recipe wasn't the same.

These fry cakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

These fry cakes are a great way to use up leftover fruit. I used a mix of apples, bananas, and blueberries and they were delicious.

These were so good! I used fresh strawberries and they were perfect. The batter was light and fluffy and the cakes were cooked to perfection.

These fry cakes were delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfect. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I served them with butter and maple syrup, and they were a hit with my family.
