Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
- 7 grams Active Dry Yeast
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 300 ml Warm Water
- 150 ml Milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Butter (or vegan alternative), melted
- for greasing rings Oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir well and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
In a separate bowl, mix the gluten-free all-purpose flour and salt.
Once the yeast mixture is frothy, add the flour mixture to it along with the milk and melted butter. Whisk until you have a smooth batter.
Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let the batter rest in a warm place for about 45 minutes until it doubles in size and becomes bubbly.
After the resting period, stir the baking powder into the batter.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease the crumpet rings and the pan with a bit of oil.
Place the greased rings on the pan and pour in enough batter to fill each one about halfway.
Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the tops are set and full of tiny bubbles and the bottoms are a golden brown. This helps create the classic crumpet holes.
Carefully remove the rings and flip the crumpets over. Cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until light brown.
Remove the crumpets from the pan and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as butter, honey, or jam.
