Crumpets v1.0

1 tsp yeast
1 tbsp sugar
1/4 cup warm 105-115° water
Mix together and set in warm place for 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.

----------
1/3 cup warm 105-115° milk
4 tbsp butter
1 egg
Mix together until butter is soft

----------
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
Mix together, then add yeast mixture and then the milk mixture.

Blend until a batter like texture forms. Cover and put batter in a warm place for 45 minutes.

Coat oil on a heavy skillet or griddle, set on medium-low. Oil three or four cooking rings, or large mouth mason jar bands, and place on skillet. Ladle just under 1/4 cup of batter into each ring. Cook slowly, until bubbles start forming. Remove rings. Flip when bottom is golden brown. Remove when top just begins to brown.

Note to self: use 1/3 cup of water next time to thin the batter out to see if more bubbles form.
