    I’m 56 and from the UK. Loved the video. I don’t like sweet toppings on crumpets, usually I have them with butter if I add a topping then it’s either pate, marmite or primula cheese on top. My guilty pleasure though is crumpet pizza, toasted crumpet, butter, ketchup and a slice of cheddar. Then pop under a grill (or for me the air fryer as our grill doesn’t work) until the cheese melts. Not for everyone but I love it when I need a comfort lunch.

    Hi, it is the 83 yo Australian living in Sweden again. After looking at your video, I made 4 rings from tin cans for my first batch of crumpets. You only could describe them as being a disaster, batter too thick, too much batter in the rings, pan too hot, rings not greased enough, etc etc.
    After messing up the first lot (they were eaten anyway), I corrected the above faults for the second lot and got 12 delicious crumpets, or at least in my eye they were since I have not had a crumpet for 25 years.
    Thank you for your detailed instructions, that made all the difference.
    And just to upset some of your readers, the only way to eat crumpets is to toast, butter and slather them with either Vegemite or Jam.

    If I can just share a tip, from the days when internet didn't exist, and living abroad made it hard to find crumpet rings (where crumpets were unnown).
    You open the top and bottom of tuna cans, the larger ones, with a wheel opener that doesn't leave jagged edges, and there are your perfect height, reusable crumpet rings. You're welcome

    This popped up in my feed for some reason. I kept watching because of the Kiwi accent, but subscribed because of the recipes and your genuine communication with your watchers. Don't be concerned about your occasional silence when trying to think of the right word; this reminds so much of my own Scottish mum who would gab away at us while she was cooking.

    Looks PERFECT for using 2 crumpets to make an egg McMuffin @ roughly .08 for the crumpets .12 for an egg, .10 slice of cheese and .15 for slice of ham= $0.45 for 1 egg McMuffin==HUGE SAVINGS and it is MADE WITH LOVE not to mention you know what is in it and who made it. OH MY DEAR, THANK YOU Ever So Much For Sharing This Beautiful RECIPE. I can feed the 3 teenage Boys I've been raising for 14 years 2 egg McMuffins each for $2.70 total (no restaurant tax or state tax). Oh how I love saving money, every penny saved allows me to buy other products I would normally not be able to afford. By the way folks we don't eat out at McDonalds and rarely anywhere else, maybe a dozen times a year. This recipe I believe the cost is even less when you have your own hen and hog. This made my day, I cannot wait to serve the 3 grandsons a 2 egg McMuffin Breakfast and knowing it is healthy and filling. Again, my Dear, Thank you so much Sincerely, a granny who is currently killing time until the youngest child's friday night school dance is over then I play granny chauffer. I'll be viewing your Hot Cross Buns video next. Have a wonderful week-end and next week-end 31th many Blessings to you and yours and Happy Easter :)

    Stainless steel:
    1. Bring the pan up to temperature.
    2. THEN add your oil/butter/shortening/etc.
    3. Re-apply fat as needed. Example: after each pancake.
    This will reduce any problem with sticking.

      I don't think their prices are that bad. Coles and Woolies branded are both $2 for a 300g round 6 pack, meanwhile they also both have Golden at $4.40 also for a 300g round 6 pack but regularly put them on sale for half price, around $2 seems fairly reasonable to me.
      Still making them at home is obviously dirt cheap in comparison requiring very little hands on time or effort, so it's definitely worthwhile to make if you can. Added benefit is adjusting the recipe to your liking such as using different flour, I tend to make 50% wholemeal crumpets which I too used egg rings before buying proper rings from Kitchen Warehouse (two 9 cm and two 10 cm).

He has passed away two years ago sadly from covid. Anyway i s😢till do meals that way. I work with what i have. Im 70 years old this year.

    Wow! What a super recipe for the good old fashioned English crumpets, or pikelets as we've always called them. I've tried for years to perfect making these favourite breakfast treats, but you're recipe is by far the best. I'm 85 years old now and don't cook as much as I did, but I'm certainly going to try out this recipe.
    Many thanks for sharing, it much appreciated. Also love your videos and your 'down to earth' approach.

      As far as I know Golden Crumpets (brand name) are South Australian. There used to be a rival brand called Hardings Crumpets which were the best, their tops would brown in the toaster. Unfortunately the company closed down in the 1990s after being in business for over 100 years. It’s Vegemite (thinly spread) on crumpets for me.

    Thank you so much for this video. I just became a new subscriber because of this recipe. I fell in love with crumpets when I lived in Australia in the 90s up in Queensland off the Bribie island road. I’ve just stopped buying them over the years because they were so expensive for what you got. But now that I have this recipe, I can become a crumpet lover again. FYI, we’ve been using club soda to make pancakes now for years, so I’m wondering how this recipe would turn out with club soda instead of water? I bet it would be delicious and even more airy. Thanks again. Sending love from Prince Edward Island, Canada. Home of Anne of Green Gables, lobsters and potatoes.

    Tracy it shows what my mother and grandmother knew so well, make your own, much healthier with no weird additives, and it costs so much less.so family can eat better, live better pay off the mortgage quicker or whatever. Have a good drink of water before you walk out the door etc. Thank you Tracy, a couple of days ago I bought local sourdough version 4 in a packet and I loved them. Loads of melted butter and a bit of Tasmanian honey. Thought I should make them. Watching you, only difference would be to let the yeast run in the mix without the baking powder say overnight in a cool place. Thank you Tracy love this recipe glad you showed these. I really like how you cook, how you show how to do things. I like what you do better than any others I have seen. I know I can do your recipes after seeing you do it. You make it real. And coming from rural Aus it all makes sense.

    Haven’t made crumpets for years. This has inspired me to start again, as I have the proper rings. Have never poked holes in them before, so I will try that next time. Cheers from Melbourne!

    So going to try these! You’ve made it look too easy not to.
    I’ve never had crumpets, so truly looking forward to eating one.
    Congratulations on your 100th video! I’m so excited for your channel growth…you deserve it.
    Take care! 🙂

    Nom nom this recipe is great! Yesterday on a cold wet wintry day I doubled the recipe and cooked crumpets on my large new griddle that I brought online using the crumpet rings I got on the Mix website. I have an induction stove and my griddle is able to be heated by two elements. It was pretty easy to just use the four rings (tip - just make sure to brush the insides with melted butter to prevent stickiness) and wait for them to set before adding more mix to the griddle. I cooked some for my mum as she has just had some dental work done on her teeth and these crumpets were nice and soft for her. I had a couple with thick lashings of butter and jam and chucked the rest in the freezer for me to grab when I feel like a crumpet :) The recipe was so easy & the ingredients so cheap it's hard to believe that they were quite a treat to have when I was growing up. I think most people would be put off because of the time that they take to cook but I think as long as you're not in a hurry they are definitely worth cooking :)
