I cannot tell you how much I love crumpets. The very word brings me joy – though not, it must be confessed, as much as the real, butter-laden deal. You can, of course, buy them in plastic-wrapped packs of six, but they never taste quite as good as the homemade sort, and this reworked recipe is perhaps my proudest achievement to date.
