Yield:Description
These Mini Crumpets are wonderfully light, fluffy and easy to make. The simple batter comes together in minutes using a handful of basic pantry ingredients and they cook up quickly into golden little crumpets with those signature holes that are perfect for soaking up butter, syrup or jam.
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup yoghurt
- 1 cup milk
- ¼ cup sugar
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
Plus:
- Butter for frying
- Syrup for serving
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- In a separate bowl or jug, whisk the eggs, yoghurt, milk, sugar, vegetable oil and vanilla essence until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth and combined. The batter should be slightly thick.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease with a little butter.
- Drop tablespoonfuls of batter into the pan to form mini crumpets. Cook for 1 minute or so per side, until bubbles appear on the surface and then flip and cook the other side until golden.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
- Serve warm with butter and syrup. Keep crumpets warm in the oven at a low temp, around 90°C is good!
Notes
These mini crumpets can be kept warm in a low-temp oven while you cook the remaining crumpets in the batch.
