Crumpet toppings

[ZenZazie]

So I’ve usually played it pretty safe with crumpets and just added lots of butter. Although I did go through a wee phase of having them with bacon and eggs and squishing the runny/jammy yolks down into the crumpets alongside the butter.

But I just tried some with not only butter but a wee touch of Bonne maman salted butter caramel spread and they were amazing.

So it’s made me think what other crumpet combos am I missing out on? Answers on a postcard please

Cured meat (I tend to go for serrano) and maple syrup

The ripest, softest, creamiest cheese of your choice, Brie, Camembert etc. Over butter so it oozes.

Peanut butter with banana and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, add bacon medallions too if I’m feeling really wild 🤪

Coconut oil and peanut butter

Now this sounds like a game changer

I quite like maple syrup, as if it were a pancake BUT I do think just Lurpak is the best.

@Calliopespa I am a big fan of Lurpak

Or golden syrup. Just a tiny bit 😋

Houmous and cucumber, cracked black pepper.

When I was a kid we used to have them with butter and golden syrup. Super sweet but so good!

Another for cheese & Beans 😋

This. I even balk at cheese a little bit.

Marmite and dairylea

Another for butter, marmite and cheddar cheese.

Blue cheese also great.

Camembert also good.

Occasionally I've used leftover clotted cream and jam if I have run out of scones before running out of clotted cream.

I used to make them into mini pizzas for my DDs when they were small.

Toast them a little first, then spread them with tomato puree and add any toppings you prefer. Like thinly sliced onion, peppers, mushrooms, sweetcorn, tuna, grated cheese.

Then grill them again until brown on top.

Honey and Maldon crunchy salt

Correct answer

Peanut butter and Marmite, together.

If you're on Instagram there's an account "what I ate for breakfast" she does some amazing things with crumpet.

I normally just have butter and marmite but Im having cheese spread at the moment.

Peanut butter!

Butter, marmite then grated cheese

Butter and peanut butter
jam and cream cheese
seriously strong cheese spread
Cheese and beans

They are the perfect platform for scrambled egg!

Spread some red pesto then top with cheese and grill - pizza crumpets!

Butter and Marmalade!
