	PEANUTBUTTER ZUCCHINI BREAD It doesn't matter who eats this bread, they ALWAYS ask for the recipe!! Summer's prime time for this one, but if you're passing the produce aisle in the store, grab some zucchini & make this! It's worth it! 3 eggs 2 1/2 C sugar 1 C oil 3 C flour 2 C grated zucchini 1/2 C peanut butter (can use crunchy if you like) 1 tsp salt 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder 3 tsp vanilla 1 tsp cinnamon 1 C nuts if desired Preheat oven to 350.

ENGLISH CRUMPETS

Makes 8

300g Bread flour
2 ½ tsp Baking Powder
275ml tepid scalded Milk
¾ tsp salt
1tsp sugar
1tsp dried yeast
1tsp oil

Mix dry ingredients together, then gradually beat in milk and water until batter is smooth. Beat for 5 minutes to work the flour.

Cover mixing bowl with clingfilm (or damp cloth) and leave in warm (not hot) place for 1 ½ hours.

Beat the mixture down.

Cover with clingfilm again then leave in warm place for 1 hour.

Warm a griddle or large frying pan.

Rub the sides of some crumpet rings (metal rings open at the top and bottom and approx 3 inches across) and the griddle pan with oil. Pour mixture ½ way up the sides of crumpet rings in the frying pan/griddle

Heat on a low heat for 15 minutes.

Put under grill to set the tops.

Push carefully out of the crumpet rings and put on a rack to cool down – don’t put in a bag or airtight container yet as they’ll go soft, there’s still plenty of moisture in them until they’ve cooled down properly.

They should keep for a few days, toast and put plenty of butter on them just before eating!

RunningHammer, I had to look up crumpet rings to see what exactly they were. For anyone who doesn't have them, like myself, thought I'd share something that I read: "You can buy crumpet rings in kitchenware shops but they are expensive - about $13 for a single aluminium ring. An alternative is to cut the ends out of 210 gram tins, such as those used for tuna or salmon, and smooth away the rough edges with a metal file. It's fiddly but they are a good size and work quite well." I also didn't know how to scald milk, so more info for those like me who need a little help!: To scald milk: Place milk in a heavy-bottomed pan on low heat. Stir occasionally until milk is just hot with steam and small bubbles appear around the edges; do not boil. Remove from the heat. Thanks for the recipe!!! I put these on my to try list!!

Now this is going to sound odd, but when i bought mine I couldn't get them anywhere. Only place i could find them was ebay ... and bizarrely they came from the USA!!! Can't remember how much they were but i got two packs of 4, they were a lot cheaper than $13 each though. So i'd recommend looking on ebay.

Not sure how important the scalding is - i've used this recipe a few times and they always come out perfect so i've had no reason to experiment. Having tried other recipes before that resulted in miserable failures...something tells me that scalding the milk may be important as it may change the texture of the crumpets somehow...

Hope you enjoy them, this is what they should look like:

Thanks Trent!! Could you just sub granulated for Turbinado? How does Turbinado effect the bread? Or maybe sub all Turbinado for the granulated...?

	Fair trade turbinado should be used in all things in place of processed white sugar. But I digress. If you don't want / have the turbinado, replace it with more brown sugar. I need to try the recipe again using turbinado in place of all the sugar. Brown sugar is really just white sugar with a little molassas added back. Molassas is a by-product of sugar refining. Turbinado is a real brown sugar.

I just found this User Group and noticed the recipe for crumpets. We. , Love. , Crumpets. Looking forward to trying to make our own this weekend!

We live in Seattle and we have a great resource for fresh crumpets called The Crumpet Shop. Check the pics, they may make your mouth water. The interior of the shop is not all that great, there's isn't a ton of seating -- but who cares. The crumpets are sooo delicious! Honey and butter for me, DW takes vegemite or honey and butter. Smile
