crumpets aka pikelets

[jack daniels]

Oh I really love these, I just wondered how you eat yours......what toppings are used & what else can be done with them.
I like mine toasted, buttered and then either plain or with any of these

jam
or
marmite
or
cheese
or
tomato puree, ham & cheese (mini pizza style)

any more toppings please

Just butter, cheese or marmite

Toasted with almond butter. Yum!

but why does no one sell pikelets anymore? also, as a midlander moved down south, everyone thinks i made the word up so I am so glad someone else knows it!

Never heard it called a pikelet - sounds like a small traveller

pikelets look like crumpets that have been sat on LOL

[Mr Veritas]

Just to be picky(as always LOL)
Crumpets are not the same as Pikelets.

The main difference being that Pikelets are much thinner,and don't (usually) have so many holes in them.
Pikelets seem now to be a bit of a rare breed now,you used to be able to get them everywhere.

Tesco used to sell them but now I have to pretend to be posh and go to M&S for them as I can't find them anywhere else (pikelets I mean - crumpets are common, you can get those anywhere!)

Chees AND marmite. Ohh now I am hungry.

[Naomicorlett]

Searingly hot with chocolate spread - no butter.
