    Crispy and lots of butter... and wait for it... fresh tomato and salt & pepper. Tastes almost like pan fried gnocchi with fresh tomato and butter. Soooo good. (if you've got some fresh basil leaves chuck them on top too)

    I also like it with butter, cream cheese & honey. Noms.

    *drools* I want crumpets now lol

    I have then with peanut butter and honey (on the same one), jam or vegemite. They're all about equal favourites but usually I end up with peanut butter and honey for some reason...
    I agree that they need to be well cooked too. Nothing worse than a half cooked crumpet.

    I must be the only one that puts golden syrup on them

    it's weird, I used to hate them, but don't mind them too much now. I like them all toasty though

    I put golden syrup on them when there is golden syrup in the house, but right now there is a certain person frequently in my house that eats my golden syrup by the spoonful straight from the can, so I've stopped buying it for now.

    As for the cooking, you can get crumpet toasters that do them to perfection, a girlfriend has one.

    HOT. That's the only thing that's important. Otherwise, Nuttelex and Vegemite, or jam.

    Once upon a time I used to love them with grilled cheese and pepper, but I love my arteries now.

    I love either honey or vegemite with lots of butter (but not now while I'm pregnant and the threat of big baby hangs over my head). I used to LOVE tomato sauce on them (and still do sneak the occasional one like that, but DH thinks it's revolting!).

    Another thing that I will need to put on my post November eating list (although they're really a winter thing aren't they!)
