I used to toast these on the bars of the gas fire when I was a child. We used a fork hooked on by it’s prongs to the horizontal bars in front of the white ceramic blocks that the flames came up through.
Toasting the bottom of the crumpet first, then the top. It would get really hot and the butter would melt all the way down into the bubbled tubes of the crumpet. Delicious x
(not to be confused with English Muffins)
Bored with crumpets toasted the with added butter I just toasted some then added grated cheese. Microwaved it for 30 seconds to melt the cheese. Then added a smidgen of brown sauce on the top. I have to say it was very tasty. Beware overheating and making the cheese hard. Also let them cool down so you don’t burn your hands and mouth!
I used to just eat crumpets with butter or margarine. Then I tried melted cheese, tonight I tried a bit of pasta sauce with mozzarella on top.
Crumpets have little holes in them, like a sponge, but the sides and base are solid so they can hold melted butter when you toast them. But I have half a jar of pasta sauce that needs using up. A tablespoon of the tomatoey sauce spooned onto the crumpets sank down into the holes. Then the cheese sprinkled on top. The toasted crumpets got microwaved for about 90 seconds.
Result, tasty crumpets with stringy cheese falling off it!
Crumpets toasted with butter.
Delightful taste
Hot and scrumtious
When I was young
We toasted them
On the gas fire bars!
Used a fork to hold them
That was before we got
A toaster
Tasty
