Crumpets / Flapjacks / Pancakes

Gosh… these are called all sorts of things in all parts of the world!

But, in short , small, fat little circles of absolute delicious-ness made to taste just like a pancake but topped with something different!

I saw this hack… and I had to give it a try!!

With the holidays coming up, I thought Id start to share some of the things I do, with my family to make life easier and more yummy! Christmas for us is about taking it easy and eating waaaay to much!

TIPS and TRICKS

  • You realy need to use a small tray to freeze these in, remember the entire “hack” is about saving time and because you are frying straight from frozen, they need to be small to actualy cook properly!

Ice cube trays actualy work the best, however, I threw a load out the other day and the rest where filled with ice!!

  • To save space, once frozen pop, them out and store in a zip lock bag back in the freezer

  • Keep your heat low - if not you will burn the bottom and still have a frozen middle

STORAGE

Store in the freezer in a closed container - zip lock bag for 1 month. That’s how long I did it, and they are fine!
