    I think I’ll make some crumpets today. They are a lot of work but delicious and worth it. I can have only one for breakfast and one for lunch because diet. “I am strong enough to resist temptation!!”

      I’ve never ever considered how crumpets are made. I just know they come in a pack from the supermarket… made by magic I guess

        It’s a semi sweet yeasted batter ( no eggs, eggs in batter make pancakes ) , you let it sit for a few hours for it to aerate , they are cooked in metal rings on a griddle or fry pan an turned over once. The supermarket ones aren’t turned over and grey . These are creamy white.

        When I was really poor I used to make these a lot, they are super cheap, healthy because of the yeast and milk and yummy.

        here is a pic of the last batch I made, they are about 1" high and 3" across
