A crumpet is a small griddle cake, or many call it a mix between a pancake and an English muffin. It has a similar central texture as bread. It is famous for its pretty holes and many love the crumpet because of the way the crumpet toppings dribble in the holes. I have a copycat recipe for the classic Warburtons crumpets on this site. Yet, whether you make your own crumpets or buy then ready-made you still need to toast them before serving. The most delicious crumpets are warmed by sticking on a toasting fork and toasting them before an open fire. However, the air fryer method works well in the modern kitchen.

Ingredients:

4 Crumpets
2 tsp Butter
2 tsp Strawberry Jam (optional)
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp orange marmalade
2 tsp Cream Cheese (optional)
2 tsp Chicken Liver Pate (optional)

Method:

Place up to four crumpets into the air fryer basket making sure they are not on top of one another.

Set the air fryer cook time to 2 minutes and the temperature to 180°C (360°F).

When the air fryer beeps add butter on top and cook for a further 1 minute at 200°C (400°F).

Serve as the butter drips down into the crumpet holes.

Most people simply add some butter to their crumpets and that is it. Personally, I prefer runny honey. Strawberry/blackcurrant jam or marmalade also work well. For those who prefer savoury toppings, then use pate or cream cheese. I also like soured cream with garlic chives.
