- 1/4 c. Water*
- 2 Tbsp. Sugar
- 1 tsp Salt
- 3 Tbsp. Butter or possibly margarine
- 1 c. Lowfat milk, scalded
- 1 x Egg

- *Use very hot water (105-115 degrees for dry yeast, lukewarm (80-90 degree) for compressed yeast.
- Sprinkle dry yeast or possibly crumble cake yeast into water. Let stand for a few min; then stir till dissolved. Add in sugar, salt, and butter to hot lowfat milk, stirring to dissolve; cold to lukewarm. Add in egg, yeast mix and flour and beat thoroughly. Let batter rise in hot place for 30 min; with spoon beat for 3 min.
- Repeat rising and beating and then rising again.
- Pour batter into greased 4 inch muffin rings on medium warm greased griddle (325 degrees on electric griddle) filling rings one third full.
- Bake till well risen and browned on one side. Turn over, rings and all, and brown on other side (should take about 18 to 20 min)

- Although crumpets are similar to English muffin, crumpets are softer in texture with surface holes appearing during the pan cooking; these holes enable the crumpet to absorb great quantities of butter.
