Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    My rings were larger (3 3/4") and I wanted taller crumpets, so I only got 9. Cooked on a griddle over low heat, turning when the top was nearly covered in holes - which I thought was the right time, but perhaps not, as the crumpets slumped upon cooling and some were doughy even after toasting. The ones with more color on top were better, so perhaps they should have cooked longer. Still, I won't bother with this recipe again.
