As (almost) every year around this time, I shall be making crumpets because I'm not in the UK and can't get them here (Germany) and I bloody love a crumpet for breakfast on a cold and foggy morning.
And as every year, I invite anyone who'd like to share recipes, tips, crumpet ring experiences (fnar fnar) to join me :D
I've given up on crumpet rings - even the very expensive ones don't stop the batter sticking and I end up battling to get my crumpets out (snigger).
Instead, I am using a pancake pan I got for Christmas last year. It's for making small american-style pancakes, or blinis, has 7 "holes" each of which is pretty much crumpet-sized.
So far I've been pleased with the results - they aren't as perfectly round as perhaps from a ring (there is some overspill), but they are easy to turn and cook beautifully, plus I can do seven at once.
The only thing (as ever) is I still haven't found the definitive recipe which gives me lots and lots of holes.
So, would anyone care to join me?
