Aarrgh! I must have done something wrong... my dough was thick like biscuit dough when I mixed it up, and then I added some extra water (1 cup) to thin it out. I set it aside to rise, and then when I went to make it, the dough was still thick. It cooked well though, and held together, but was much more like a soft english muffin than a crumpet. They were, however, delicious. So I'll try again. What is the diameter of your english muffin rings, btw? I wonder if mine are too big.
It sounds like you might have added too much flour, Ally. Check out how we weigh our flour for all of our recipes here, and they should work out just fine! The diameter on our rings are 3 3/4" x 1" deep. We do hope you give it another try, and happy baking! ~Jessica
