Crumpet alternative for toasting Recipe

British · Bread · 30 min total

A quick and easy alternative to traditional crumpets, these fluffy, holey griddle cakes are perfect for toasting and slathering with butter.

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar
• 1 large egg
• 3/4 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
2. In a small bowl, beat the egg, then stir in milk and melted butter.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; batter will be lumpy.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per crumpet onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 3-4 minutes.
6. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
7. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly. Toast before serving if desired.

Tips

• For best results, use a ring mold to get the classic crumpet shape.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
• Serve toasted with butter and jam, or use as a base for eggs benedict.
