Crumpets.

How do you eat yours? I normally like them well done, with loads of real butter. Today though, I buttered, marmite, mature chedder then back under the grill and they were bloody amazing. I've not had crumpets in years, but I can see a new food habit forming.

Any other tasty toppings I haven't thought of?

Chocolate or jam

Usually just butter, real butter of course. Occasionally cheese on top of the butter, but never anything sweet.

I need crumpets. Now.

Butter
Butter and jam
Butter with cheddar then either onion chutney or apple sauce on and back under the grill.
Cheese and bacon

Honey or a nut butter.

Or mushed up tinned sardines with sliced tomato.

Just butter. Real butter. So much so that it drips through the holes and leaves buttery puddles on the plate.

Sparrowlegs248 · 20/10/2019 17:46

Buttery puddles are a must. I'm not sure about anything sweet. The children would probably like jam.

I think I could manage nut butter. Might try it later, I've 4 left.

Peanut butter, golden syrup or biscoff spread!

NotYourHolidayDick · 20/10/2019 17:48

Butter and scrambled eggs and pepper.

Ds and DH have jam.

Confused food of the devil !
Never ever.

Bipbopbee · 20/10/2019 17:53

Peanut butter or honey. Also Bovril with or without melted cheese Grin

Mackerel pate is also delish

iklboo · 20/10/2019 17:58

Butter
Butter & jam
Butter & chilli cheese
Seriously spreadable cheese

DS likes butter & honey. Cat2 likes licking the 'sticky butter' off the plate when he's finished.

Oh gawd I haven’t bought crumpets for ages. Cheese & marmite or a nut butter sounds AMAZING.

Sainsbury’s own brand are the best, weirdly. Better than Warburtons.

Branleuse · 20/10/2019 18:01

butter, peanut butter and sriracha sauce. Amazing

Sparrowlegs248 · 20/10/2019 18:01

They are Sainsbury's own!

Really crispy, butter and bovril.

Or regular crispy, cheese, back under the grill.

I like a savoury crumpet.

GaraMedouar · 20/10/2019 18:03

I love crumpets! Just butter usually, but sometimes i add a scrape of Marmite, or a tsp of jam if I wasn't something sweet.

louderthan1 · 20/10/2019 18:04

Crunchy peanut butter

FiveTwoFaster · 20/10/2019 18:04

Chicken liver pate! Pushed right between the holes.

IHaveBrilloHair · 20/10/2019 18:11

Very crispy, real butter and either marmite, or blue cheese.

Glenthebattleostrich · 20/10/2019 18:12

I'm a week into low carb boot camp and would happily swap DH for a hot crumpet smothered in butter right now

icecreamsundae32 · 20/10/2019 18:15

My kids like them with honey, jam or chocolate spread! I've gone off them but used to just like them with butter no other topping!
