Crusty bread, real butter and jam, as a rare treat 😋

I cant remember the last time I had jam! I went to the shop for croissants and jam but they didn't have any croissants so I got crusty bread and apricot jam.

It was delicious.

Thick sliced white crusy bread with either sausage or bacon, runny eggs (just the yolk) and a hash brown in. Thick pancakes, scrambled eggs and bacon smothered in maple syrup. Or cafe fry up😍

Or on a healthy note, natural yogurt mixed with matcha powder and honey, topped with pears, raspberries and strawberries and granola. So refreshing

Toast or crusty bread, salted butter and my homemade marmalade or blackberry jam - I'm not really good at cooking and domestic stuff but churn out jars and jars of the stuff and it does boost my confidence.

With maple syrup Wink

Scrambled egg, smoked salmon and avocado on some kind of seedy bread

Also like apple crumble 🙂

For those who buy, non knead crusty is easier than life itself. 3 cups all purpose, 2 tsp yeast, 2 tsp salt, 1.5 cups warm water. Leave for a few hours in a warm place. Put a le cruset with lid in oven on full blast for 10 minutes them add dough. After 30 mins, remove lid and brown for 10 mins then eat. I make once a week and toast for the working week, it keeps well

Poached eggs on toast are the best breakfast.

Oh dear god I am craving crusty bread and butter with a nice jam! And it's too late to add to my shopping delivery now 😢

iklboo · 01/02/2020 17:27

Cream cheese and black cherry jam in croissants is the best breakfast,

Dear Gods Ada that sounds amazing. What time shall I come round?

wildthingsinthenight · 01/02/2020 17:28

I agree if it's very thickly spread salted butter Smile

Living in France but nothing in this world beats an Ulster fry.

@SeaToSki I never knew that about US butter! I’ve puzzled at butter quantities in some US recipes (and I like my butter!).

morrisseysquif · 01/02/2020 17:38

@SeaToSki

You could make your own butter, all you need is heavy cream and a jar!

SallyWD · 01/02/2020 17:41

YANBU!

BurtonHouse · 01/02/2020 17:45

Porridge with blueberries underneath, cream and maple syrup on top, and on a weekend as a treat a teaspoonful of a good single malt.

morrisseysquif · 01/02/2020 17:45

Fresh bread is why I have a bread maker, the heel of the bread with salted butter, half spread with jam, any except apricot.

BLack pudding, as a side. It has to be clonakilty.

SeaToSki · 01/02/2020 17:49

Ive actually looked at making my own butter, but all the milk here is homogenized and Ive been told that doesnt play nice for butter making. Now if I could just find a handy milking cow, I would be ‘all set’ to use the local parlance 😂

BlackForestCake · 01/02/2020 17:57

Right, now I need to know what is so bad about American butter.

LemonadePockets · 01/02/2020 17:57

Breakfast is not breakfast unless there’s a tattie scone on the plate!

ManiacalLapwing · 01/02/2020 17:59

Cooked breakfast of bacon, egg, avocado, mushrooms, spinach, tomato and sweetcorn
or
Oatbran porridge with sultanas, mixed seeds and banana

Jam as a rare treat? Are you one of the Railway Children?

LynetteScavo · 01/02/2020 18:03

A cinnamon roll is the way to go for a fantastic breakfast.

I may have had 3 Ikea ones this morning

BlueWonder · 01/02/2020 18:19

Lightly toasted peshawari naan bread.... tear into bite sized pieces and dot a teaspoon of natural yoghurt on top as you eat it. Best with a big pot of tea, an old fashioned broadsheet and a spare hour!

AndThenThereWereSeven · 01/02/2020 18:24

Scrambled eggs, smoked salmon thrown in at the last minute, mushrooms, smashed advocado, and a croissant for carb lovers is THE best breakfast.
