I'm posting this to give people encouragement. I made these last weekend. I screwed up the flour measurements and the batter was thick and gloppy. No problem, I set it aside to rise anyway. An hour later I realized I also screwed up the yeast measurement, so added in more yeast, stirred and let rise for an hour. Realized that I screwed up the salt too, so added that in and gave it a good stir. Heated up the cast iron skillet. If warm is good, warmer is better right? So, put in my butter, added the rings, waved aside the smoke created by the burning butter and poured my concrete batter right into the rings. By the time I tried stopping the pour, I had filled the rings to the top. No problem, with all the smoke in the kitchen, who would notice? I then watched in horror as the batter began to multiply, rising rapidly in the intense heat, pouring over the sides of the rings and onto the skillet, creating a gentle aroma of burning flour and salt. Time to remove the rings. Easier said than done as I couldn't see them anymore. They had disappeared somewhere in the four crumpet volcano's I had created in my pan. No fear, I dug right in, searching for them with the veracity of a dog digging for a bone, which, btw, creates a smaller mess than I did in my pan. However, I succeeded finding my rings, removed them, and used my hand to set them down on the counter. After the pain stopped from the impromptu branding I gave myself as the rings were glowing red I turned to my crumpets, which by now had ceased cooking because food can only burn so far. Into the trash they went, and not learning much from my experience, or maybe I'm just a stubborn old man, I used up the rest of my batter with a bit more success. End results were crumpets that actually tasted great, but looked like something you'd feed prisoner's of war. Lesson here: sometimes, even when you are a good cook, things go wonky on you. I make great bread, but admit I really screwed up here. No worries...I'll be doing it again now that I've refreshed my knowledge with this great video and instructions. Don't give up, if things go wrong chalk it down as you learning a way not to do something. Success awaits, so onward!

Btw if you don't have the rings like me and don't intend to make them often, just make the rings out of baking sheet. You can reinforce them with some foil if you need to. Easier to take off without sticking.

They're great with lemon curd.

Yes, and lemon cheese is even better!

Just made these and I'm really pleased with the results. They're very light and airy. I've made crumpets using Paul Hollywoods recipe a couple of times but they're always a bit doughy and the recipe is more complicated. This recipe is highly recommended! I've been a very keen baker all my life and love it when i master a procedure. Ifollowed the recipe in the video to the letter. I got 12 from the batter. They look slightly deeper than in the video. I poured a bit more in the rings. Also even though my rings are supposedly non stick I found I needed to make sure they were well buttered to stop them sticking to the rings. This will be my go to recipe from now on. Xx

@matoko123

4 ай бұрын

Yes, definitely butter the inside of the rings.

I just made these. I'm an Aussie who grew up eating bought ones. Years ago bought ones were yum but now they have no flavour or puffiness. I can say this recipe made really fluffy, puffy, airy, and very tasty crumpets that were filling but light to eat. They had that fresh bread feel that only comes from homemade yeast products. They were easy to make. You do have to test the best temperature for your heat source and pan. You don't need a deep egg ring like the one used in the video. You can use a shallow one but just fill it to the top. I also used a large shallow burger ring to make larger crumpets and that worked as good as a small egg ring. I halved the recipe and it made six crumpets - using a larger ring than the video.

I eat mine with butter, fresh mozzarella and honey ! WOW so good ! and for the savory taste I like to eat them with feta cheese, some fresh tomatoes, green and black olives and i dipp the crumpets it my favorite extra virgin olive oil and wow ! 😚

I have been trying to make my own Crumpets for ages now with no luck. I came across this by accident today and my Crumpets came out perfectly! The secret Is to leave the batter to rise for at least an hour and a half to at least double. Also, once you mix the batter, as per this video, pour It Into the jug you will use to pour Into a frying pan rather than pour the risen mixture from a bowl - so the bubbles keep!

Riccotta cheese, honey, sea salt. Heaven.

These look scrumptious!

These look brilliant! I'm definitely going to be making these today, I can't wait :)

I just made these. OMG! Couldn’t wait to taste them. My first batch were a little too thick. (Too much batter in the mold) The second batch are just right. In all honesty, I couldn’t wait for them to cool completely so they were soft and a little chewy. When they get cold and are toasted they will have the toaster crunch. I made 14 crumpets with this batter. I had to converted the grams to ounces, since I couldn’t get my scale to change to grams. I also made diy light flour. Nothing too hard. I will certainly make these again! THANK YOU!!! I have missed good crumpets.

I live in East Tennessee and we just harvested our first strawberries of the year. We made jam Saturday and now I'm going to order ring molds and make crumpets. Well made video...liked and subscribed. Update: I received my rings and made my first crumpets today. They tasted great but I did make a few mistakes. My batter was too viscous and I overfilled my rings on my first attempt. After thinning the batter it was easier to fill the rings half full. I made twenty crumpets using the attached recipe. Keys to success: batter must be pourable, fill rings 50% and cook low and slow! Thanks for sharing your recipe.
