Crumpets!

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

Thanks.

Honey

Very well toasted so they are crispy on top then lots of salted butter. I also like them with toasted cheese. Very occasionally strawberry jam

Butter lots of it! Marmite and butter or dairylea sometimes with butter as well. Not a sweet crumpet fan dariylea is better than you think

Just lots of butter. Why ruin perfection?

This. Butter is the only acceptable topping for crumpets.

Cream cheese and smoked salmon
But my fave is butter and a slice of mature cheddar or even better Tintern cheddar!

...golden syrup?!

Blasphemy.

QueenBeex · 18/12/2022 21:33

Strawberry jam, or just butter.

Computersaysno123 · 18/12/2022 21:34

Only butter! Don't ruin it

Computersaysno123 · 18/12/2022 21:34

Also burn them a little. Mmmmmm

Soak in beaten egg and fry.

Are most of you on drugs? Butter, and only butter. Lots of it.

Just loads of butter for me. You’ve just reminded me I forgot to get some from the supermarket today, and now I want crumpets.

BobbinThreadbare123 · 18/12/2022 21:37

Butter. So much butter that you have to go for a wash after eating the crumpets.

Hepherlous · 18/12/2022 21:38

Butter, marmite and a fried egg (turned upside down so yolk runs into the crumpet)

MrsTerryPratchett · 18/12/2022 21:39

If you have to, Marmite. But you don't have to.

The butter should be so if you press the crumpet with a knife, melted butter flows out. You have to eat it over a plate.

Marmalade

Strong cheddar cheese. Grilled.

I saw 2 chubby cubs dunk them in beaten egg and fry them, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar (sort of like french toast)- I haven’t tried but 🤤

BamBamBilla · 18/12/2022 21:42

Soak them in egg and fry them off like French toast.
