Crumpets
Prep Time:
2 hours, 15 minutes
Cook Time:
7 minutes
Servings:
12 crumpets
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon yeast
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Directions
  1. Put the flour in the bowl of a stand mixer, then put the yeast, sugar, and salt on the flour. Pour the warm milk over top.
  2. Mix on low with the dough hook for 3 minutes until a soft dough is formed.
  3. Put in a clean bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in size, roughly an hour or so.
  4. Fit your mixer with the paddle attachment, and put the dough back in the bowl.
  5. Put the baking soda in the warm water and stir to combine, then pour over the dough in the bowl and mix on low 1 to 2 minutes until you have a batter (there will be chunks of dough in the mix — that's okay).
  6. Cover again and let rise and get bubbly for another hour.
  7. Preheat greased frying pan over medium-low heat and grease the crumpet rings, then place them in the pan to preheat.
  8. Fill heated crumpet rings about a third to a half full.
  9. Let the crumpets cook until the bottoms are set and the batter is bubbly and has risen to the top, then flip (remove rings to finish cooking if tops are firm).
  10. Repeat until all dough is used, cleaning and greasing rings between use, then serve hot.
