Crumpets

Crumpets are delicious when spread with butter and mermalade. The butter soaks into the crumpet and drips down your chin as you bite them !

　

Ingredients

8oz Plain Flour
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried instant yeast
1/2 pint walm milk

oil to grease

Crumpet rings : 3-5" in diametre

　

Process

1. Mix Flour, sugar, salt and dried yeast in a bowl. Add the walmed milk, and stir the batter until smooth.
2. Cover the bowl, and put in a warm place and leave it until the mixture rises and the surface is full of bubbles (about 40-60 minutes). If the batter is very thick, loosen with the milk.
3. Break it down by beating with a spoon.
4. Grease some crumpet rings (about 3" in diametre) and put them on the flying pan (or bakestone) to heat.
5. Pour 1/2 inch deep of batter into each ring. Cook gently until small holes appear and the top has started to dry.
6. Lift off the ring, flip it over and cook until the other side is just coloured slightly.
7. Spread with lots of good butter and enjoy !

　

Tips

• Don't heat the milk too much or dried yeast won't work.
