BUTTERMILK CRUMPETS
This is an American rendition of a British classic. Serve with your choice of savory or sweet toppings, like fruit spread and butter, double Devonshire cream, clotted cream, etc... I love using crumpets as a base for eggs Benedict. If you have an Instant Pot® you can use the yogurt setting and proof the dough much faster!

Steps:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, heat buttermilk and 1/2 cup milk to about 100 degrees F (37 degrees C). Sprinkle yeast and sugar over milk mixture, stirring once. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 10 minutes.
- Combine flour and salt in a large bowl. Add yeast mixture and stir to combine, forming a soft dough. Cover and place in a warm place for 40 minutes or until doubled in size.
- Combine remaining 1/2 cup milk and baking soda in a small bowl. Stir mixture into dough until incorporated. Cover and leave for 30 minutes in a warm place.
- Heat a cast iron pan or griddle over low heat. Spray metal crumpet rings and place into middle of frying pan. Fill each ring with 1/2 cup of crumpet mixture. Cook for 4 or 5 minutes until bubbles appear and the edges are starting to set. Remove from ring and cook the top for 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.

BUTTER PECAN DONUTS
Steps:
- For the donuts: Add the yeast, granulated sugar, milk, flour, salt, eggs, egg yolks and shortening to a mixing bowl (in the order listed). Mix on low speed with a dough hook attachment until the dough is very smooth and elastic and makes a slapping sound against the sides of the bowl, 25 to 30 minutes. Scrape the dough into a greased container, cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Two hours before you want to roll the dough, remove it from the refrigerator to temper. Dump the dough onto a floured work surface and roll to 1/2-inch thick. Cut the donuts using a donut cutter and place on a tray with parchment paper that's been greased and floured. Cover with plastic wrap and let proof for 1 hour.
- Turn on your deep fryer to 325 degrees F. When they are ready to fry, the donuts will be very light and airy feeling; they should barely hold their shape when handled. Fry for 2 minutes per side. Drain on a wire rack or paper towels.
- For the butter crunch: First, make the toffee. Heat the butter, granulated sugar and salt in a nonreactive pan on medium-high heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Cook until deep golden or camel colored. Pour onto a silicone baking mat or sprayed parchment paper on a tray and let cool completely. It will be very hard and shatter if you tap it. Then, grind the toffee in a food processor with the toasted pecans. It should be uniformly finely ground.
- For the glaze: Whisk the milk and confectioners' sugar together until perfectly smooth. Strain to remove any lumps.
- To assemble: Dunk the cooled donuts in the glaze. Let it drain for 1 minute. Roll the donut in the butter crunch, making sure to completely cover all sides.

Steps:

- Grease a heavy-based frying pan with a little vegetable oil and heat over medium-low heat. Lightly grease 4 x 9cm diameter crumpet rings.

Cook until the tops look dry, about 10-12 mins.
- Flip them over and cook for 5 mins until golden and firm. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve toasted with butter or with cheese melted under the grill.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh buttermilk and eggs will give your crumpets a better flavor and texture.
- Follow the recipe carefully: Do not overmix the batter, as this will make the crumpets tough. Crumpets are meant to be light and fluffy, so overmixing will result in a dense, heavy texture.
- Use a well-seasoned griddle: A well-seasoned griddle will help prevent the crumpets from sticking. If you don't have a griddle, you can use a large skillet.
- Cook the crumpets over medium heat: Cooking the crumpets over medium heat will help them cook evenly. If the heat is too high, the outsides of the crumpets will burn before the insides are cooked through.
- Flip the crumpets only once: Once the crumpets have cooked for a few minutes, you will see bubbles forming on the surface. At this point, it is time to flip the crumpets. Be careful not to flip them too early, as they may not be cooked through.
- Serve the crumpets warm: Crumpets are best served warm. You can toast them lightly before serving, or you can serve them with your favorite toppings, such as butter, jam, or honey.
Conclusion:
Butter pecan crumpets are a delicious and versatile breakfast food. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Whether you serve them plain, toasted, or topped with your favorite ingredients, butter pecan crumpets are sure to be a hit.
