CRUMPETS



Crumpets image

My local grocery store quit selling crumpets, so I decided to try my hand at making my own! These are a nice alternative to English muffins. To serve, toast the crumpets whole and spread with butter, honey, jelly, or your favorite topping.

Time 1h50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon white sugar
2 ¾ cups warm water, divided
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons dry milk powder
1 ½ teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon baking soda
cooking spray
Crumpet rings

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast and sugar in 1 cup of warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix flour, milk powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Make a well in the middle. Add the yeast mixture and remaining 1 3/4 cups warm water. Mix well with a wooden spoon until dough is the consistency of cake or waffle batter. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand in a warm spot until bubbly, about 1 hour.
  • Combine 2 tablespoons water and baking soda in a small bowl. Mix into the batter. Let stand for 15 minutes.
  • Heat a cast iron griddle or nonstick pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the griddle and inside of the crumpet rings with cooking spray. Arrange the rings on the griddle.
  • Fill crumpet rings 2/3 of the way with batter. Cook until tops are covered in bubbles and starting to look dry, 5 to 8 minutes. Carefully lift up crumpet rings, flip the crumpets, and cook until second side is lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn heat down if crumpet is overly dark or still raw in the middle.

Homemade crumpets with ricotta, berries & thyme honey image

Forget shop-bought crumpets, here's how to do them at home this weekend. Delicious served with a light topping of summer fruits, fresh ricotta and honey

Provided by Dan Doherty

Categories     Breakfast, Brunch

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

260ml milk
1 tsp caster sugar
7g sachet fast-action dried yeast
220g plain flour
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
vegetable oil , for oiling and cooking
80g ricotta
200g mixed summer berries
4 tbsp thyme honey

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, heat the milk and 60ml water until warm but not hot. Take off the heat, add the sugar and yeast and stir in, then set aside for 15 mins.
  • Sift the flour, bicarb and a large pinch of salt into a mixing bowl. Make a well in the middle and add the milk mixture. Stir to make a batter, then cover with a tea towel and leave for 40-50 mins until frothy.
  • When ready to cook, heat a flat, non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat and oil four cooking rings, roughly 8cm diameter. Add a splash of cooking oil to each ring and tip in a ladleful of the batter (you want them between half and three-quarters full). Cook over a low heat for 15 mins or until bubbles form at the top and pop.
  • Gently lift off the ring, running a knife around the edge if it's stuck. Flip the crumpets over to cook the top for a minute or so, then take out of the pan and leave to cool on a wire rack while you cook a second batch.
  • When ready to serve, toast the crumpets lightly. Spoon over the ricotta, scatter over the berries and finish with a drizzle of honey.

BREAKFAST RICOTTA WITH BERRIES & MAPLE SYRUP



Breakfast Ricotta with Berries & Maple Syrup image

Provided by Ina Garten

Time 50m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons sliced blanched almonds
1/8 teaspoon fleur de sel
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
2 cups Fresh Homemade Ricotta, recipe follows, or good fresh ricotta
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 pint mixed berries, such as raspberries, blueberries and strawberries
Toasted brioche or challah, for serving
4 cups (1 quart) whole milk
2 cups (1 pint) heavy cream
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons good white wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a small saute pan over medium heat. Stir in the almonds and saute, tossing frequently, for 2 to 3 minutes, until the almonds are a golden brown. Sprinkle with the fleur de sel, add the maple syrup and keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, combine the ricotta, honey and vanilla and divide it among breakfast plates. Surround the ricotta with the berries and spoon the almond and maple syrup mixture over the ricotta. Place a slice of toasted brioche on each plate and serve warm.
  • Set a medium-meshed sieve over a deep bowl. Line the sieve with two double layers of cheesecloth and dampen the cheesecloth.
  • Pour the milk and cream into a large stainless steel or enameled pot such as Le Creuset and stir in the salt. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally (a full rolling boil means that the bubbles have expanded in the pot). Turn off the heat and stir in the vinegar. Allow the mixture to stand for one minute until it curdles.
  • Pour the mixture into the cheesecloth-lined sieve and allow it to drain into the bowl, discarding the liquid as it collects in the bowl. Allow it to drain at room temperature for 20 to 25 minutes. The longer you let the mixture drain, the thicker it will be. Transfer the ricotta to another bowl, discarding the cheesecloth and any remaining liquid. Use immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Yield: about 2 cups

CRUMPETS

These traditional English breakfast or tea-time cakes are intentionally undercooked, so that they can be toasted to order when it's time to eat.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Yield Makes 10 large or 15 small

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 cups milk
1 package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
3 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for serving
Oil, for griddle
Jam or honey, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Have ready four 4-inch flan rings. Combine milk and 1 cup water in a small saucepan; heat to 110 degrees. Transfer mixture to a small bowl. Sprinkle the yeast and the sugar on top, and stir with a fork. Let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes.
  • Into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, sift flour and salt. Slowly add some milk mixture while mixing on low speed. Slowly increase speed to medium-high while adding remaining liquid, until all flour is incorporated. Beat on medium-high until smooth, about 3 minutes.
  • Tightly cover bowl with plastic wrap; let stand in a warm place until doubled in size and dough is bubbly, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Return dough to the mixer. Dissolve the baking soda in 1 tablespoon hot water, and add to the dough; mix until well combined. Cover, and set aside for 20 minutes.
  • Lightly oil a griddle or large cast-iron skillet; place over medium heat for 5 minutes. Generously butter flan rings; place on heated griddle. Reduce heat to medium low. Pour 1/2 cup batter into rings; cook until bubbles rise to the surface and top is dry, about 10 minutes. Remove rings; turn crumpets over. Cook until slightly golden, about 8 minutes. Remove; cool on a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter. When ready to serve, heat a broiler, and toast crumpets. Serve warm with generous amounts of butter, jam, or honey, if desired.

Fruit Platter with Whipped Ricotta image

You can use any assortment of farmers' market and tropical fruits for this impressive brunch spread. Bonus: you can make all the accompaniments in advance: juicy poached peaches, creamy ricotta flavored with vanilla and maple syrup, and subtly sweet digestive biscuits.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 45m

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 ripe but firm peaches or nectarines (about 1 pound), quartered and peeled
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 pint part-skim ricotta
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1/2 honeydew melon, halved and cut into thick slices
1/2 pineapple, halved, cored, and cut into thick slices
1/2 baby watermelon, cut into thick slices
1 bunch green or muscat grapes
3 kiwifruits, peeled and sliced
8 fresh figs, halved
2 cups mixed berries, such as blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries
Digestive Biscuits, for serving

Steps:

  • Poached Peaches: Combine peaches, sugar, lemon juice, and 2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook, gently stirring occasionally, until fruit is just tender, 5 to 10 minutes, depending on ripeness. Transfer peaches to a heatproof container with a slotted spoon; strain syrup over top. Let cool completely. Peaches in syrup can be refrigerated, covered, up to 1 week. (Makes about 2 cups.)
  • Whipped Ricotta: Puree ricotta, vanilla, and maple syrup in a food processor or blender until creamy. Mixture can be refrigerated, covered, up to 5 days. (Makes 2 cups.)
  • Fruit Platter: Arrange all fresh fruits on a platter. Serve with poached peaches, whipped ricotta, and digestive biscuits.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe fruit for the topping. This will ensure the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have a crumpet ring, you can use a cookie cutter to cut out circles of dough.
  • Be careful not to overcook the crumpets. They should be cooked until they are just set in the center.
  • Serve the crumpets warm with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include butter, jam, honey, and fruit.

Conclusion:

Crumpets are a delicious and versatile breakfast food that can be enjoyed with a variety of toppings. They are easy to make and can be made ahead of time, making them a great option for busy mornings. Whether you are looking for a classic breakfast or something a little different, crumpets are a great choice.
