📝 Instructions

9 steps
1

In a small bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let sit for about 5 to 10 minutes or until the mixture foams.

2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture and the milk. Use a wooden spoon to beat the mixture until you have a smooth batter.

3

Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the batter rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size and is bubbly.

4

After the batter has risen, gently mix in the baking powder. The batter will be thick yet still pourable.

5

Preheat a non-stick frying pan or griddle on medium-low heat and lightly grease it with butter.

6

Grease metal crumpet rings with butter and place them onto the frying pan. Fill each ring with approximately 3/4 full of batter.

7

Cook the crumpets for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the tops have set and bubbles form, then carefully remove the rings. Flip the crumpets and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes or until lightly golden on the other side.

8

Transfer cooked crumpets onto a wire rack to cool slightly while cooking the remaining batter.

9

Serve warm with extra butter, jam, or your favorite toppings.
