Flashback Fridays - Australian Crumpets Recipe

(From 6/18/2020)

My darling man had a flashback to a yummy experience of eating Australian crumpets and wished to manifest them again in the here and now. I joked and said “You find me the recipe and I will make your dreams come true.”

This recipe is the manifestation of that……….

 INGREDIENTS:

  •  1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast

  • 1 tsp sugar

  • 1 cup warm water (110)

  • 3 cups unbleached flour (I used the very inexpensive Krusteaz Pancake flour mix)

  • 2 tsp salt

  • 3/4 cup warm milk (110)

  • 2 Tbsp Vegetable oil (I tend to use grapeseed or olive oil)

  • 1/4 cup fine cornmeal

 

METHOD:

  •  In a small bowl, stir briefly to dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water.

  • Leave it to stand until creamy for about 10 mins.

  • In a large bowl, mix the flour and the salt.

  • Stir in the milk, oil and yeast. Beat to smooth.

  • Place on a non stick tray and cover and rise for 60 mins - until it’s doubled.

  • It’s going to be quite thick, gooey with air holes.

  • This is where you chill or freeze if not using now.

  • Stir the batter and sprinkle cornmeal on the dough.

  • Place poaching egg rings onto a buttered griddle if you want a perfect shape - don’t fill the poaching ring as they will be thick and take ages to cook.

  • Personally, I plop them onto my buttered griddle with a spoon and spatula as I like the homemade appearance.

  • Cook to golden and then turn. Bake on both sides and transfer to cool.

  • split and toast to serve with any topping that makes you happy!!!

 I Love my man’s ideas!!! This is a good one to share.

Let me know what kinds of toppings really make this a special treat for you!! I love both savory options as well as sweet!! There are many combination tastes as well, like sweet/hot, salty/sweet, sweet/sour… the list goes on!!! I really want to hear from you!

Love & Blessings,
Ruth
