Sorry to hear your crumpets weren't ...Hi Alex,<br /><br />Sorry to hear your crumpets weren't a raging success... Perhaps the problem was that you were making them too thick? Maybe give it a shot without filling the egg rings all the way to the top, make them quite flat because they will grow a little as they cook, and if they're a bit thinner they'll have a chance to cook through. <br /><br />Glad they tasted good though - what's the point of a crumpet other than to soak up butter and honey?!<br /><br />Thanks for commentingeatitgoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00248764550631380732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-359840931727485382.post-42831848166268078912010-08-15T10:50:13.188+10:002010-08-15T10:50:13.188+10:00I don't know what I did wrong, but on medium t...I don't know what I did wrong, but on medium to low heat the bubbles never came up. I turned the heat up to just above medium and then I got some holes. It also set on the top, i then flipped and gave it another couple of minutes on the other side. They looked good, but were too mushy on the inside. I wonder if my batter was possibly too runny???<br />Anyway, the taste was good. And I ended up making them without an egg ring for the last quarter of the batter which resulted in holey pancakes that cooked much better and still soaked up plenty of butter and honey.<br />So not a complete success, but not a failure either. I think I will have to practice some more.
