I’m trying to get back into crumpets and wanted some inspiration. What is your favourite crumpet topping? preferably vegetarian.

    Peanut butter (sometimes with honey), Jam, Nutella, Beans & cheese,

    Not all together of course, unless you like to live life on the edge!

    Butter and a nice strawberry jam is usually my go-to. Melted cheese under the grill if I want something savoury. Peanut butter is also nice.

      Butter and jam is my topic of choice as well, but I miss my mom’s homemade jam :(

    Nobody for butter and jam? Or a bit of honey? I likes 'em sweet usually. I sometimes go for mustard and cheese, then grilled.

    Butter and Marmite. Other toppings are nice, but whenever I have them I always feel it was a bit of a wasted crumpet because it’s not butter and Marmite.

    Surely salted butter is the only right answer here?

    I’m going with the concensus of butter, marmite and cheese. But, if available, use the chilli marmite (dynamite) to make it top drawer.

    Was recently in Sweden. A swede recommended the combo of cheese and English marmalade on toast.

    Sounds deeply weird but it’s surprisingly nice. Can confirm it also works as a crumpet topping.

    I’m slightly confused by the phrase “get back into crumpets” - you fell out of love with them? That’s like falling out of love with breathing!

    Truffle infused olive oil - if you’re feeling decadent.

    Honey - if you want to be sticky.
