Crumpets are the perfect breakfast item or snack, because they are filling, delicious and there are so many different ways that you can eat them. We are sharing our favourite 10 Vegetarian Crumpet Toppings to give you some new meal and snack inspiration.

Crumpet Toppings
Whether you are a sweet or savoury person, crunchy or smooth, we have a topping for you! Forget pancakes, crumpets are the new toppable breakfast or snack in town and we are showing you how to take them to the next level with these 10 Vegetarian Toppings (you could easily use meat though)
Are crumpets healthy?
Crumpets are fairly dense and high in calories compared to bread, but they are much more filling. It all comes down to the topping and if you load it with fruit or veggies, then you can have a healthy crumpet.
You can also buy crumpet thins now, which are about half the calories of a regular crumpet.
How to eat crumpets
I distinctly remember the first time that I ever tried a crumpet. My Dad had been working early in the morning and he was back home around the same time I was waking up for breakfast.
I saw him buttering these round bread-like circles and asked if it was a new kind of toast. No quicker than one was passed to me, it was in my mouth and I have been hooked on crumpets ever since.
We never got more adventurous that butter or jam on our crumpets when I was a kid, so ever since I have been experimenting with different ways to jazz crumpets up.

These look so tasty! Are crumpets the same thing as English muffins- we have those here in the US. The Peachy keen one is my favorite that you have listed!
Dannii
No, they aren't the same but you could use them if you can't get crumpets in the US.
