Breakfast - Crumpets

Crumpets with Butter and Jam

I decided to have crumpets for breakfast, and I toasted my crumpets this morning. We had some in the house and I had time to enjoy them this morning. One of the best ways to have them is with melted butter and either Jam or Honey, todays choice was Raspberry jam .



Crumpets must be eaten warm of course, and the jam should be applied after the butter has melted. There should be enough butter that it soaks into the crumpet, and in some parts through the crumpet, depending on the "holes".

Yes you get sticky fingers this way, but it is worth it. They should of course not be over toasted, a little crunch in one spot is OK, as long as the vast majority is warm and soft. Cream is also definitely an option, there wasn't any in the house otherwise I would have had some on top, yum, yum.
