In 2024 I'm going to post mostly about crumpets (in order to bring them back into fashion and fulfil the prophecy).
Everywhere I go now I'm offered coffee and croissants or choc au pan. Never a crumpet to be seen let alone a bacon sarnie.

@the-gravedigger saidNothing wrong with a proper croissant. And coffee is a morning necessity.

@very-rusty saidAustralia loves crumpets in the winter, oozing with butter and honey. Not in cafes though, they offer more "upmarket" food.
Only to be had in the Uk of course. 🙂

@torunn saidThe Australian version is as big across as a hamburger roll, but only as thick as a toast slice and can be toasted in most home toasters. I'm guessing an aerated unsweetened batter cooked on a hard hot surface such as a griddle. Americans wouldn't like them because they're not sweet. Mind you, honey or jam tends to get piled on ...
Are crumpets like scones?

@david-burton saidTry that again only this time give us one of those Paul Hollywood, twinkly eyed smiles.
Nothing like scones, Crumpets are basically a collection of holes in a yeasty dough that you warm up and fill with butter then serve with a cup of earl grey tea..... I'm not selling it am I?.
