Crumpet rings
UK store: amzn.to/2y83Xxm
These are nothing like the rubbery shop bought crumpets and only take a little effort and time. Perfect for a weekend brunch. Make extra to keep in the fridge for a quick breakfast snack throughout the week.
It is thought that the English crumpet came from the Welsh Pikelet called “Bara Pyglyd”. In my opinion these were probably a loose yeast mixture that was baked on top of the stove and probably didn’t have any baking powder in them. I am guessing the baking powder was a later addition so I don’t use any in my recipe.

Don't mind me, just a curious American who wants to know more about crumpets. 🥺🖤
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!
Interesting no Bicarb of Soda in this recipe…
This is proper, a dude with a thick af british accent telling us how to make crumpets. This is what the good Lord intended.
Looks great. The video presentation is first class. Straight to the point, no stupid loud music and a pleasure to watch. I’ll be looking out for your other videos. Thanks.
Fancy a bit o crumpet?
So weird having sweet toppings on a crumpet. They aren't a scone. Savoury all the way.
These look so good 😋😋😋 my preferred topping is lashings of butter and Vegemite ( yes I’m Australian 🇦🇺 😎, no haters please 😂)
They look great but where are the ingredient amounts, you can’t guess it
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
Winter in Australia this weekend so these are on the menu tomorrow! Thankyou for a straight forward straight to the point video
Made these this morning thanks to this video. I can't believe it took me this long to find the easiest and tastiest bread recipe.
