Sourdough crumpets are the easy-to-make, buttery addition to breakfast you didn't know you needed! They're the slimmer, more elegant cousin of English muffins; what they lack in nooks and crannies they make up for in small holes and sourdough tang. (Those small holes allow butter to seep through the entire crumpet.) When you have to feed your sourdough starter or have an excess of discard on hand, make these sourdough crumpets in just 10 to 15 minutes, from start to finish.
