Ingredients
- 3 - 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 Tablespoon butter, melted
- 2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoon sugar
- 2 - 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 cup warm milk
- 1/2 teaspoons baking soda dissolved in 1/4 cup warm water
Instructions
- Stir together the yeast and 240ml warm water in a bowl and leave to stand for 5-10 mins. Add the warm milk, butter, salt and sugar, then tip in the flour and stir until smooth. Leave to stand for 30 mins.
- Dissolve the baking powder in a little water, then leave to rise for 20-30 mins.
- Oil a heavy-based frying pan with a little vegetable oil and heat over medium-low heat. Lightly oil four 9cm crumpet rings. Spoon batter into the rings so it comes halfway up the sides. Reduce heat to low, cover with a lid, or an upturned deep frying pan to give the crumpets space to rise. Cook until the tops look dry, about 10-12 mins.
- Flip them over and cook for 5 mins until golden and firm. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve toasted with butter or topped with cheese, melted under the grill.
