Gluten Free Crumpets Recipe NZ

Home-made gluten-free crumpets, the perfect breakfast to enjoy over the weekend when you have a bit more time.

10

Serves

15 minutes + rising + 30 minutes cook time

Prep Time

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup boiling water
  • ¼ cold water
  • 2 tsp Edmonds Active Yeast
  • 1 ½ Edmonds Gluten Free Self Raising Flour
  • ½ cup Edmonds Fielder's Cornflour
  • 2 tsp Chelsea Caster Sugar
  • 1 ½ tsp salt
  • 1 ¼ cups milk
  • 1 Tbsp butter, melted (or Olivani Spread)

Method

  • Combine boiling water and cold water in a small bowl. Whisk in yeast and leave to sit for 10 minutes, until frothy.
  • Sift flour, cornflour, sugar and salt into a large bowl. Make a well in the centre. Whisk in milk, then yeast mixture, until smooth. Cover and leave in a warm place for 2 hours, until mixture has risen slightly and has a few bubbles on top.
  • Heat a large non-stick frying pan on medium. Brush two crumpet rings and the frying pan with a little melted butter. Place trumpet rings in pan.
  • Spoon 2 ½ tablespoons mixture into rings and cook for approximately 5 minutes, until bubbles appear and the surface is almost dry. Flip over and cook for a further minute, until crumpets are cooked through. Repeat, brushing crumpet rings and pan with more butter, until mixture is used up.

TIPS

  • If you don't have crumpet rings, you can use egg rings or cookie cutters instead.
  • To prevent the bases of the crumpets burning, make sure you don't have the pan on too high a heat.
