its caused by the air bubbles in the mixture that rise and burst at the surface when they are being cooked on the griddle.
it results in lovely little pockets to hold peanut butter and jam or better still, make crumpet pizza! Spread a little tom puree, chop some ham, slice a mushroom, top with grated cheddar and toast (not too near the heat element) til golden, melted and bubbly. Ooooh good for weekend brunch!

The amount of yeast in the mixture is more than required to raise them .... yeast when mixed with water and a little sugar creates a gas, and what you are seeing is the shaped gas bubbles. Peace & Love

They are caused by air bubbles in the mixture
before cooking.

It's because when they're toasted the butter soaks in them.

for the melted cheese to go in! i thinks they're made by air bubbles in the dough they use - not sure how they are so big and uniform though!

You spread them with butter and it soaks in. Tastes delicious.
