CRUMPETS OR FLANNEL CAKES.
341. One pint of milk,
One egg,
A tea spoonful of butter,
Salt to taste,
Half a gill of yeast,
As much wheat flour as will form a batter.
Warm the milk and butter together; it should be lukewarm but not hot. Beat up the egg and add to it with the salt, then flour enough to form a batter; lastly the yeast. Set it to rise, and when light grease your bake-iron and bake them like buckwheat cakes—butter them and serve them hot.
