It is fun to make your own crumpets
from a few simple ingredients. These crumpets are slightly softer
than the commercial variety. They can be frozen.
Ingredients
4 cups plain flour
2 tbsp baking powder
1½ tsp salt
1½ tsp sugar
3 cups warm water
1 tsp instant yeast
Method
Sift flour, baking powder,
sugar, salt into large bowl. Dissolve yeast in a little water, and
when all the yeast has been incorporated into the water add it to dry
ingredients. Beat until smooth.
Pre-heat a frypan, lightly grease some egg-rings, put them in frypan to heat
them through. When hot, three-quarters fill the rings with batter.
Allow to cook over low heat
for approximately ten minutes or until surface is covered with holes.
Remove rings.
Cover frypan and cook
further 2 to 3 minutes or until surface has set. Remove from pan,
cool on wire rack.
When cold, toast and serve
with butter.
