2 cupfuls flour.
1/2 teaspoonful salt.
2 1/4 teaspoonfuls baking powder.
1 egg, sugar and milk.
Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt, add the yolk of the egg, well beaten, and enough sweet milk to make a soft dough. Turn on to a floured board, knead slightly, then roll out about a quarter of an inch thick, brush with softened butter, sprinkle with sugar, cover with peeled and sliced peaches, sprinkle again with sugar and roll as a jelly roll. Place in a baking pan, brush over with the beaten white of the egg, sprinkle again with sugar, bake about half an hour and serve with hard or liquid sauce.
