I was in a grocery store a while ago, and guess what I saw! A little package of Crumpets! I had never had Crumpets before so I got them and couldn’t wait to see what they were like! Let me just say, they looked NOTHING like I would have expected! They kind of resembled a spongy pancake burned at the top with holes in it!
I had no idea how to eat my Crumpet so I did some research to find out some different ways to prepare it.
How to eat a crupmet:
Traditional- Warm the Crumpet and spread either jam, honey, chocolate spread, or lemon curd. Then serve with tea.
Breakfast- Warm the Crumpet with a slice of cheese then top it with some bacon and eggs.
Appetizer- Warm the Crumpet and top it with cheese and tomato or peppers or spread with some Vegemite.
Sandwich- Use two Crumpets as bread and make your favorite sandwich.
I ended up LOVING my Crumpet with some cheese and a egg for my breakfast! Now Crumpets have found themselves as a necessary to always be in the house. Click here for a link to a recipe for homemade Crumpets! Enjoy your Crumpets!
this made me laugh. Mostly because of your description. 🙂 and hearing dad laugh about it. I for some reason always thought they were like a shortbread cookie. I had no idea they looked like that either. 🙂
Haha, they are really good though. I bet home baked crumpets look better.
