Scrumpets image

A cross between a scone and a crumpet, these easy to make biscuits will be the star of any meal, and you'll love that you don't need to heat up an oven. I searched for years before finding a bacon and cheese version of this recipe, which I modified to make this plain version that I love. When I finally found it I was amazed at how easy these are to make!

Time 45m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
2 tablespoons white sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
3 eggs
½ cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon butter, or as needed

Steps:

  • Place flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl and mix well.
  • Beat milk, eggs, and melted butter together in another bowl; stir into the flour mixture with a few strokes. Handle dough as little as possible.
  • Scrape the dough out onto a generously floured surface. Dip your fingers in flour and pat dough into a circle about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into 4-inch rounds to form the scrumpets.
  • Melt butter in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Frying pan should be greased very lightly, preferably with butter. Fill pan with some scrumpets and immediately reduce heat to medium. Cook for 5 minutes. Turn, lower the heat, and cook for 5 minutes more. Cook remaining scrumpets and serve warm.
