    It’s a semi sweet yeasted batter ( no eggs, eggs in batter make pancakes ) , you let it sit for a few hours for it to aerate , they are cooked in metal rings on a griddle or fry pan an turned over once. The supermarket ones aren’t turned over and grey . These are creamy white.

    When I was really poor I used to make these a lot, they are super cheap, healthy because of the yeast and milk and yummy.

    here is a pic of the last batch I made, they are about 1" high and 3" across

      So why is crumpet a word for sex or a woman?

      creamy and delicious perhaps 😂

        Hate to say this, but crumpet is full of holes. About the right dimensions for the kind of people who use that phrase.
