English Crumpets

Ingredients

• •250g all-purpose flour
• •7g instant yeast
• •250ml warm water
• •100ml warm milk
• •1 tsp salt
• •1/2 tsp baking soda
• •1 tbsp vegetable oil

Directions

1. 1Mix flour, yeast, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl.
2. 2Add warm water and milk, stirring until you have a thick, smooth batter with a consistency like pancake batter.
3. 3Cover and let rest at room temperature for 20-30 minutes until bubbly.
4. 4Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly oil crumpet rings or metal molds.
5. 5Pour batter into rings until half-full and cook for 4-5 minutes until the top sets and holes appear.
6. 6Remove rings and flip crumpets, cooking another 1-2 minutes until golden on the bottom.
7. 7Serve warm with butter, jam, or honey.

💡 Crumpet batter should be loose enough to form surface holes before the tops set; batter that is too thick gives you dense rounds without the characteristic tunnels.
