Tea and Crumpets for Breakfast

I purchased British Style Crumpets

during a quick visit to the new Trader Joe's in Lexington

on Sunday afternoon.

Plain Crumpets (above) and Cinnamon Crumpets (below)

have become a new favorite breakfast for 13 year-old AJ.



I toast them in the toaster oven,

spread a little pure Irish Butter on the warm crumpets,

then add jam to the plain crumpets

and a little cinnamon sugar to the cinnamon crumpets.

Yum!  Yum! 



I found a recipe

in the book

Tea and Crumpets

Recipes and Rituals from European Tearooms and Cafes

by Margaret M. Johnson

 

but, the Trader Joe's Crumpets are

perfect for a quick breakfast on school days

especially with a nice cup of English Breakfast Tea.
