I’m pretty sure it’s not possible to get any more height without using rings. Embrace the pikelets!

Look great, but how do you get the height without using rings???? My ‘freestyle’ crumpets are always a little shallower.

Thanks for all of your effort on this! It was MUCH appreciated it. I made them and shared on my blog and then turned them into crumpet and tea bread pudding!

Hi!
I have heard of recipes using vinegar aswell as the ingredients you used. What do you think? I don’t want to end up with a dangerous mix….
Search hov is crumpets and on the packet it says vinegar!, thank you!!

Attempted these last night, tasty but a very disappointing lack of holes

Think the problem was the fermenting stage, as nowhere in my flat is warm enough to get the yeast going! I will have to time the next attempt to coincide with the heating being on. Oh well, gives me an excuse to eat more crumpets I suppose!

Foodycat – Excellent! Let me know how you get on.

Ambulance – Sorry I just found your comment in spam so bit of a delay in publishing it. Glad to hear you need no conversion to the sinful ways of the crumpet.

Chris – Crumpet y crumpet y crumpet y goodness. One of the finest vehicles for butter every invented. They look great and I’m inspired to eat a buttery crumpet topped with lashings of golden syrup. So messy and so good.

This is very exciting for me. I made crumpets last month (or should I say, attempted crumpets and achieved discus) and now I feel able to have another crack at it.
