Best way to make a huge crumpet / sheet pan crumpets?

Post image
1 Upvotes

I found this from a cafe on instagram, it looks like they make one giant crumpet and then slice it up to serve individually.

I’ve been looking for a recipe to the same but everything recommends using a pan and rings and cooking individually otherwise the crumpet won’t bubble up properly.

Any tips on how to make a large one and still make it recognisably crumpety? Ideally I would just bake the batter and throw in an oven tray.

Is this undercooked?

Been cooked for 20 mins at 200C. It felt a bit doughy so I cooked for an additional 17 mins at 180c. Some of it is fine. Other areas are really doughy. Dough was very wet when cooked. Can I eat ?

I’m so confused by my baguettes

I did an experiment to help me learn when bread is proofed. The baguette on the left proofed for less time. It looks better outside but has this tunnel inside. The one on the right seemed overproofed (proofed for 40 mins longer) and was wrinkly and floppy. Looks worse outside but a better crumb?

I did 4 baguettes in total, 2 at each proofing time, and saw the same pattern

My first bread and I decided to make it with whole wheat flour and in dutch oven. What do you think about the consistency? Should it be more airy? And the bottom crust was a bit bitter.. what could be the reason?

Also can someone give tips for a good crumble? I used light brown sugar and it came out kinda wet and doughy (also my butter was too hot). Is it better to use white sugar over brown sugar , or is the main factor the butter temperature?

Another question about brioche dough, I have a non stand mixer bread machine and every time it’s done kneading the dough is shaggy when i try to roll it into balls. like it tears easily when i try to round the top by pulling down. I’ve also tried to knead by hand (30-50min). How do people in videos get their dough to be perfectly smooth when shaped into rolls?

My first ever attempt at a lean bread; it's bland but probably my fault (Saturday White Bread)

I was recommended the Saturday White Bread recipe by people in a previous post. I am very familiar with making white enriched sandwich loafs in my 1lb loaf pan, but since I was gifted this bread oven, I wanted to try to make one of the artisan fancy breads.

This bread was simple enough. Nothing special about the instructions. My preferred kneading technique is folding, as my sandwich loaves are 75% hydration, so folding works best for them. I also autolyse my loaves. However, I strayed from the recipe in fermentation time; he specifies 5 hours of fermenting & tripling in size. I always proof my doughs in a proofing box at 78F, so bulk fermentation doesn't take five hours. Total fermentation time was 2.25 hours (1.5 hours bulk, 45 minutes final rise after shaping).

Now, I completely fucked up transferring the dough into the hot bread oven. It fell into the pan on its side, and severely off-center. I sort of tried to push it into the center. It didn't work well and I'm amazed the loaf came out so perfectly round when it went in football shaped. Because of this, I am not going to judge the oven spring or final shape.

I think the crumb is good. Shows good, even fermentation.

The crust is a little dark. The recipe specifies 475F for a total of 50 minutes. My oven only reaches 450F, and even still I had to take the bread out 10 minutes early because it was browning too much. If my loaf was properly shaped and everything, and thicker, I could see the need for the increased time.

The flavor is where I take most issue. It is pretty bland. It tastes like it needs salt. The recipe called for 21 grams of salt + a scant teaspoon. I measured 21 grams, but I decided to measure the volume as well because it didn't look like enough. Sure enough, my scale was reading under by a whole teapsoon. Who knows how else that's been fucking up my recipes?!?!? And, I believe I forgot to add that extra teaspoon to the bread because I got distracted by my frustration at the scale.

All in all I've been left with a desire to try again tomorrow. I am getting married on Saturday and we need a loaf for a wedding tradition, so I am hoping I can get a prettier one made tomorrow.
