--------  ------------  --------------------------------
       1/4             C  Warm Water -- 115 deg F
    1                Pkg  Active Dry Yeast
    1                Tsp  Sugar
       1/2             C  Milk -- scalded & cooled, to lukewarm
    1                     Egg Beaters(r) 99% Egg Substitute -- or equiv
    1 1/2              C  Flour
       1/4           Tsp  Salt
    2               Tbsp  Butter -- melted

Combine the warm water, yeast and sugar in a mixing bowl and let set 
for 10 minutes.

Add the milk and egg and mix well.  Add the flour, salt and butter 
and beat vigorously until batter is smooth.  An electric mixer works 
fine -- the beating encourages the holes to form.

Cover the bowl with a towel and set in a warm draft-free place for an 
hour or more or until batter has doubled in size.  Stir batter to deflate it.

Heat a skillet to moderate heat.  Arrange the well-buttered rings on 
the skillet and let them warm up.  Drop a heaping tablespoon of 
batter into each ring.  When crumpets begin to bubble and bottoms are 
lightly brown, remove rings, turn crumpets and brown the second 
side.  Serve hot from skillet.

Makes about a dozen.
