margarine maple syrup, applesauce or fruit butter Combine the first 5 ingredients in a mixing bowl. In another bowl, combine the egg, buttermilk, and squash and stir together until smooth. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir together until completely combined, but do not overbeat.

Heat a nonstick griddle. Melt just enough margarine to coat it lightly. Pour the batter onto the griddle in scant ¼ cupfuls enough to make 3-inch cakes. Cook on both sides until golden. Keep the griddlecakes warm in a covered casserole dish in a 200 deg. oven until all are done. Serve at once with your favorite topping. Posted by Linda Davis
