Scottish Crumpets image

These are very soft pancake-like treats but made larger (approx twice the size) and more thinly than pancakes. They can be spread with butter and/or jam and are traditionally rolled up before eating (although this adds nothing to the flavour).

Time 25m

Yield 12 crumpets

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 pinch salt
2 large eggs, separated
2 tablespoons butter, melted
3/4 pint milk

Steps:

  • Beat the egg yolks and blend in the sifted flour, sugar, salt. Then add in the melted butter and milk to make a thin batter about the consistency of thin cream.
  • Beat the egg whites to the soft peak stage and quickly add to the batter, folding with a knife or metal spoon.
  • Heat a lightly greased gridle or a heavy frying pan and pour in large spoonfuls of the batter. Each crumpet should spread thinly to about 4/5" in diameter and you may have to roll/rotate the pan to achieve this.
  • When the batter is brown underneath and slightly bubbly on top, turn and cook on the other side (if you are feeling adventurous you could try tossing them). Best eaten when warm.

I'm not a big fan of crumpets, but I have to admit that these were pretty good! The texture was nice and light, and the flavor was subtle but satisfying.

I made these crumpets with whole wheat flour, and they turned out great! They were a bit denser than traditional crumpets, but they were still very tasty.

These crumpets are the best I've ever had! They're so light and fluffy, and they have the perfect amount of sweetness.

These crumpets were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some spices or herbs next time.

I made these crumpets for my family, and they were a huge hit! They all loved the light and fluffy texture, and the slightly tangy flavor.

These crumpets were a bit too dense for my taste. I prefer a lighter, more airy crumpet.

These crumpets are the perfect comfort food! They're soft and fluffy, with a slightly crispy exterior. I love them with butter and jam.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crumpets came out flat and greasy. I'm going to try again with a different recipe.

I made these crumpets for a Scottish-themed brunch, and they were a huge success! Everyone loved them, and I even got a few requests for the recipe.

These crumpets were a bit of a disappointment. The texture was dense and gummy, and they didn't have much flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

Wow, these Scottish crumpets were a hit! They were light and fluffy, with a slight tang from the buttermilk. I served them with butter and honey, and they were absolutely delicious. Definitely a keeper recipe!
