250ml (1 cup) milk
250ml (1 cup) coconut milk
360g (3 cups) cake flour
185ml ( cup) sugar
10ml (2 tsp) baking powder
Pinch of bicarbonate of soda

Method
Beat together the eggs, milk and coconut milk in a jug. Sift the dry ingredients together, adding the coconut. Add the milk mixture and stir well. Mix in the butter.
Preheat a non-stick frying pan and place 30ml (2 tbsp) of batter at a time into the pan, smoothing it into a circle. When bubbles appear on the surface, the crumpet is ready to turn. Cook for a minute or two until golden brown. Serve with fruit and syrup.
