Preparation
    For the berry compote, combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
    Meanwhile, sift flour, salt and sugar into medium bowl.
    Combine 3/4 cup warm water and yeast in a small bowl; let stand 5 mins. Add to dry ingredients, stir until smooth.
    Spray a large skillet with no stick cooking spray and heat on medium-low heat. Place 4 egg rings in pan; spray each ring with cooking spray for 2 seconds. Fill each ring 3/4 full with crumpet mixture. Cook crumpets on low heat, 10 mins, or until top is covered with burst air bubbles.
    Remove egg rings and turn crumpets. Cover pan. Cook 3 mins, or until top is firm. Remove from pan and cool on wire rack. Repeat with remaining mixture to make a total of 8 crumpets.
    To serve, toast crumpets. Top with berry compote and dust with sifted powdered sugar, if desired.
