English Crumpets

The initial batter can be prepared through the first rise, covered, and refrigerated for up to 8 hours. Bring to room temperature and proceed with adding butter and soda. Once cooked, crumpets are best served immediately, though they can be cooled completely and frozen in an airtight bag for up to 2 months.

Store cooled crumpets in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To serve, toast until heated through and crispy on the edges. For longer storage, freeze for up to 2 months and toast directly from frozen.
