How to Make Crumpets
- Sift 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon salt into a large mixing bowl.
- Gently warm 1 cup milk to 105-115°F (40-46°C). Sprinkle in 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast.
- Let stand for 10-15 minutes, or until frothy.
- Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture. Beat with a whisk or electric mixer until a smooth batter forms.
- Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- In a small bowl, dissolve ½ teaspoon baking soda in 1 tablespoon warm water. Stir into the batter.
- Cover and let stand for another 20 minutes.
- Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Use a 3-inch metal pastry cutter or cookie cutter to cut circles out of the batter onto the hot surface.
- Pour approximately 1 tablespoon of batter into each cutter, ensuring the base is thinly covered.
- Cook until the tops are set and the bubbles have burst (about 3-4 minutes).
- Carefully remove the crumpet from the cutter, flip, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until lightly browned.
- Cool on a wire rack.
- Serve warm with your favorite jam, marmalade, or lemon curd. Or, let cool completely, and toast until golden brown for a delightful crunch.
