Crumpets!

What else can I put on my crumpets apart from golden syrup? The kids have Nutella but I'm not a fan.

Thanks.

Jam, curd, cheese, marmite

Blowyourowntrumpet · 18/12/2022 21:10

Definitely Marmite

Dammitthisisshit · 18/12/2022 21:10

Marmite, cheddar, thickly sliced onion then back under grill to melt.

Pizza crumpets - lightly toast, then add tomato puree, cheese and oregano and grill to melt the cheese. Et voila

HimiJendrix · 18/12/2022 21:11

Jam, preferably apricot

Neverknowinglysensible · 18/12/2022 21:12

Just lots of butter. Why ruin perfection?

Pixiedust1234 · 18/12/2022 21:13

Butter. Then a very thin layer of strawberry jam.

GrannyAchingsShepherdsHut · 18/12/2022 21:14

Nutella and lidls Morello cherry jam..

Giner and rhubarb jam is my latest discovery and works well with crumpets.

Or just butter and dunk them in soup

I had butter and pate earlier. Yum.

JuneWind · 18/12/2022 21:14

Lots of salted butter, then lots of cream cheese, then lots of salt and pepper. You can thank me later.

Matildahoney · 18/12/2022 21:15

Pate, biscoff spread, poached egg

LozzaChops101 · 18/12/2022 21:15

Baked beans, or just butter! Can’t be doing with sweet things on crumpets!

Creativecake · 18/12/2022 21:15

Hummus. It’s better than you think!

or cheese - toasted.

NooNakedJacuzziness · 18/12/2022 21:16

Drizzle Amaretto into the holes and seal over with Nutella

alternating · 18/12/2022 21:16

Enough salted butter that it forms a litre pool underneath and the crumpets go sort of translucent.
Failing that what a load of grated extra mature cheddar and under the grill. A bit of Worcestershire sauce or franks hot sauce if you're feeling cheeky.

TheChosenTwo · 18/12/2022 21:16

Toasted until very dark and hard on the top, then lots of butter - sometimes marmite too.
crumpets are savoury for me, definitely not sweet!

WitchDancer · 18/12/2022 21:16

Lashings of butter and a smidge of marmite. Well lush!

grapehyacinthisactuallyblue · 18/12/2022 21:19

Definitely butter. Butter and jam. Butter and cheese. Butter, jam and blue cheese. Heaven.

W0tnow · 18/12/2022 21:20

Vegemite.

thenightsky · 18/12/2022 21:20

Toast till crisp and dark brown on top, then a gallon of salted butter. Just that.

FourChimneys · 18/12/2022 21:21

Marmite

SabbatWheel · 18/12/2022 21:21

Honey

KangarooKenny · 18/12/2022 21:22

Grill them until they are really crispy, then lightly salted butter 😋

Luredbyapomegranate · 18/12/2022 21:23

Butter, marmite, Philadelphia- from the gods.. amazing combo of hot/cold, salty/creamy.. from the gods

Golden syrup or honey, and butter

poached / fried egg with runny yoke, butter and salt

Bibbitybobb · 18/12/2022 21:23

Marmite and tahini (together) or poached eggs!
