In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, baking powder, and salt.
Slowly add the warm water while stirring continuously to form a smooth batter.
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the batter sit for at least 45 minutes in a warm place to rise until it becomes bubbly and has almost doubled in size.
After resting, add the low-fat milk to the batter and whisk until it is smooth.
Lightly grease a non-stick frying pan or griddle with cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat.
Place crumpet rings in the pan and spoon batter into each ring until it is about halfway up the ring.
Cook the crumpets for about 6-8 minutes or until the surface is set with bubbles.
Carefully remove the rings, flip the crumpets, and cook for another 2 minutes or until golden brown on the other side.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your choice of low-fat spread, honey, or a dollop of jam.
