List of Ingredients

CRUMPETS

1 cup milk
1 cup water
1 1/2 tablespoons yeast
4 cups flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt

Mix the milk and water and warm it (do not permit it to become hot). Add the yeast and stir until it is dissolved. Add the flour. Beat well for 5 minutes. Cover and leave in a warm place for 1 hour.

Dissolve the soda and salt in a teaspoon of warm water and add to the batter. Beat well. Cover and set in a warm place for 45 minutes to rise.

Heat a lightly oiled griddle to medium hot. Grease some crumpet rings (or egg rings) and place on the griddle to heat them. Spoon in enough batter to fill each ring halfway. Cook over medium heat until the top is set (the top will be dry and full of holes). Gently turn the crumpets over to allow the undersides to dry. When the crumpets have a light, golden color and are dry inside, place on a cooling rack and remove the rings. Serve immediately with butter, or use them later toasted and serve with butter and jam.
