Equipment
- Whisk or Spoon
- Griddle or skillet
- Crumpet Rings (optional)
- Spatula
- Oven Mitts or Kitchen Towels
- Cooling Rack
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- 2 ¾ cups warm water divided
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons dry milk powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
- Prepare Batter: Mix dry ingredients (flour, sugar, salt, baking soda) in a bowl. In another bowl, mix warm water and yeast until foamy. Combine wet and dry ingredients to make a smooth batter. Let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Preheat Cooking Surface: Heat a greased griddle or skillet over medium heat. Grease crumpet rings and place them on the griddle.
- Cook Crumpets: Pour batter into each ring, about ¼ cup per crumpet. Cook for 5-6 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is golden brown.
- Flip and Cook: Carefully flip the crumpets using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
- Cool and Serve: Remove crumpets from the skillet and let them cool slightly on a cooling rack. Serve warm with butter, jam, or your desired toppings.
Notes
- If you don't have dry milk, substitute 1/2 cup regular milk for 1/2 cup of the water in the recipe.
- If you prefer thicker or thinner crumpets, adjust the amount of batter you pour into the rings accordingly.
