that’s a crumpet? My whole life has been one delicious lie

Crumpets are normally not this big. I used this recipe, if you’re interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ganHDnSz3yw

Its quite different from a pancake. It has more leavening and its the extra yeast that creates bubbles.

Normally, you would use a ring/mold to get them the traditional size. This one was made in a small pan. For reference, in this one crumpet, there is the equivalent of four crumpets worth of batter

Crumpets, you'll never buy another crumpet from the store.
