Homemade Crumpets Recipe By Tasty

CRUMPET RECIPE

Steps:

• Place flour, water and salt in a bowl and whisk for 2 minutes (electric beater 1 minute on speed 5).
• Yeast Mixture - Dissolve Yeast into 1 tbsp warm water in a small bowl.
• Add Yeast Mixture, sugar and baking powder into bowl, then whisk for 30 seconds (or 15 sec speed 5).
• Cover with cling wrap or plate, then place in a very warm place for 15 to 30 minutes until the surface gets nice and foamy. It will only increase in volume by ~10 - 15%.
• Grease 2 or 3 rings with butter (approx 9 cm / 3.5" wide, though any ring or metal shaper will do, Note 3) (TIP: Non stick rings - brush with melted butter. Everything else - smear with butter)
• Brush non stick skillet lightly with melted butter then place rings in the skillet.
• Turn stove on medium high (medium for strong stoves) and bring to heat (Note 4 for "sizzle test").
• Pour 1/4 cup batter into the rings (65ml), about 1cm / 2/5" deep (will rise ~60%).
• Cook for 1 1/2 minutes - bubbles should start appearing on the surface (but not popping yet).
• Turn heat down to medium, cook for 1 minute - some bubbles should pop around the edges.
• Turn heat down to medium low, cook for a further 2 1/2 to 4 minutes, until the surface is "set" and it's clear there will be no more bubbles popping! (At this stage you can help the final bubbles pop with a skewer!)
• Remove rings (you might need to run knife around to loosen).
• Then flip and cook the other side for 20 to 30 seconds for a blush of colour.
• Transfer to write rack (golden side down) and fully cool.
• Can be eaten once cool, but it's even better the next day (Note 5).
• Toast in a toaster until the base is crispy.
• Slather generously with butter, then spread of choice (honey is perfection) and devour immediately!
