Gluten Free Crumpets


Joburg has been hit by a cold front, and all I can think about is snuggling up under a duvet with a stack of crumpets dripping in Maple syrup ;)

Gluten Free Crumpets

Ingredients

125ml (½c) rice flour
5ml (1t) xanthan gum (available at most leading supermarkets and chemists)
30ml (2T) Huletts Castor Sugar
8ml (1½t) baking powder
3ml (½t) salt
150ml buttermilk
125ml (½c) full cream milk
2 extra-large eggs, separated
3ml (½t) vanilla extract or 5ml (1t) vanilla essence
10ml (2t) oil
Huletts Maple Syrup and fresh berries to serve

Method
Sift the flour, xanthan gum, Huletts Castor Sugar, baking powder, and salt together.
Mix the buttermilk, milk, egg yolks and vanilla together.
Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour and beat well.
In a clean bowl, and using an electric beater beat the egg whites until soft peak stage, do not overbeat.
