Crumpets - savoury or sweet?!

[Wherestheteenguide]

Settle an argument between DH and I.
Crumpets are for butter/marmite
English muffins are for jam

Or vice versa?
Aibu - crumpets are sweet
Aibnu - crumpets are savoury

Cheese and marmite on a crumpet is the most superior end to a Sunday afternoon you can possibly ever have.

They are both fancy types of bread, so can be either. I like honey and cheese (separately, not at the same time) on crumpets, and eggs and honey (also separately) on muffins.

Butter and melted cheddar here
DP also adds baked beans

Vegemite, not marmite. And on both 😋

Marmite and cheese, of course

Both.
First two butter and cheese.
Second two butter and a conserve or jelly.
Divine.
I try not to buy them.

Both.

I love crumpets with:

• butter and marmite
• butter and honey
• butter marmite and a poached egg
• butter and jam/curd
• just lashings of butter.

Sadly now I have type 2 diabetes, I don’t get to eat crumpets any more.

Crumpets are the perfect vehicle for butter.

And whatever also goes with butter. So cheese, marmite, honey etc etc

I was with you till you said english muffins are for jam, no way. Both are strictly savoury. Eggs, marmite, cheese, butter, those are the permitted toppings.

crumpets are absolutely for both
pesto and cheese win on savoury
jam stuffed doughnut crumpets win for sweet

English Muffins are only for bacon, egg and cheese slice sandwiches

One of each usually , butter and salt or marmite then honey and salt

Just butter.

Peanut Butter on one with a cup of tea.

Butter and Marmalade on one with a cup of coffee.

Both obviously. Same with English muffins. They’re both just fancy toast

Along with me!

I like mine with butter and raspberry jam

Savoury for me.
Just butter
Or also melted cheese
Or fried egg

Savoury. But crumpets jus5 don’t taste the same any more….

Baked beans and bacon and bacon melted bacon fat from the pan. Best cure for a hangover.

You're absolutely wrong.

Crumpets are for salted butter, marmite, really strong cheddar and hot sauce.

English muffins are for bacon (or sausagemeat), fried egg and cheese. And some hot sauce.

Banana and crunchy peanut butter is lovely. But on the whole, prefer marmite and salted butter

Crumpets themselves are like bread- can be used for savoury or sweet. I am firmly in the butter and marmite camp, or just butter. But I don’t have a sweet tooth.
DD likes them with honey which is all manner of wrong.

Just salted butter takes some beating, but I would also go marmite. Definitely not jam, honey at a push.

Bovril is much better than marmite

Marmite and sometimes cheese too. But the same on an English muffin. Jam is for scones and rice pudding.
