Crumpet

A crumpet is a sort of pancake eaten in the United Kingdom. It is also usually made in a particular circular shape using crumpet rings. However, I do not own any so I used an egg ring instead. 


Crumpets can be eaten with butter, honey, jam, marmalade, fruits...basically any topping that you desire. I think crumpets make excellent breakfasts or tea snacks.





This makes up to about 7-8 crumpets, each of approximately 2.5 inches in diameter.


Ingredients


175g all-purpose flour
350ml warm milk
1 teaspoon yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
pinch of salt


Cooking method


1. Mix all the ingredients to form a thick batter. 
2. Grease the crumpet/egg ring.
3. Heat up an oiled pan or skillet.
4. Place the crumpet/egg ring on the pan.
5. Spoon batter into to the ring till it fills up to about half of its depth.
6. Once holes are beginning to form on the top, remove the ring and flip the crumpet over.
7. Serve hot with your favourite topping.
