A workable recipe for crumpets was included in my post about English
muffins, back upthread.

I did see your recipes, I forgot to say thanks, I might try
to make them. I'd just have to find a long enough fork to
split them.

Nancy, I use an old angel food cake server. I don't know if they're made any
longer, but if you don't have one, you might find one at a thrift shop or
antique shop. It does the whole muffin at once. I push it in twice, first
once and then again at a right angle to the first.

LOL crumpets don't need to be split. They are toasted or grilled as is.
