Bacon And Egg Crumpet Melts Recipes

BACON AND EGG CRUMPET MELTS

Steps:

• Grill rashers of smoked back bacon until crisp. A minute before the bacon is done, add 2 Warburton's Giant crumpets to the grill and lightly toast, then add slices of cheddar to the crumpets until melted and bubbling. Top the crumpets with the grilled bacon, then with a fried or poached egg and lots of black pepper.

EGGY CHEESE CRUMPETS

Steps:

• Heat the grill. Beat the eggs and milk together in a wide dish. Submerge the crumpets in the egg mixture, turning them once, then set aside for a few minutes.
• Arrange the tomatoes cut-side up on a baking tray and grill for a few minutes, then cover the tray with foil to keep the tomatoes warm.
• Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the crumpets for a few minutes on each side until the egg has set - you may have to do this in batches. Transfer them to a baking tray as you go. Once all the crumpets are cooked, top with the cheese and grill for 1-2 mins until the cheese is bubbling and golden. Serve with the tomatoes and avocado slices.

CRISPY OVEN BACON AND EGGS

Steps:

• Take the eggs out of the refrigerator. Place a rack in the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Arrange the bacon on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer, spacing evenly. Roast in the center of the oven until the fat renders and the bacon curls, about 8 minutes. Very thin slices will cook more quickly; thick-cut ones will take longer.
• Take the pan out of the oven and quickly flip the bacon and move to one side of the pan. Crack the eggs onto the other side, then immediately return the pan to the oven and roast until the whites are just set, the yolks are still runny and the bacon is brown and crisp, 2 to 5 minutes longer. If you prefer medium or hard egg yolks or extra-crisp bacon, cook a few minutes more, but take out the bacon before it burns.
• Using a spatula, cut the eggs apart. Slide them off the pan and onto plates right away to stop the yolks from solidifying. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Drain the bacon on paper towels, then add to the plate along with toast. Serve immediately.

FULL ENGLISH CRUMPETS

Steps:

• Heat the grill to the highest setting. Spread the bacon and sausages (cut side down) out on two baking trays and grill for 10 mins, turning the bacon halfway until cooked through and turning crispy.
• Meanwhile heat the beans in a pan over a low heat. Add the Tabasco, Worcestershire sauce and paprika, stir in ½ the butter and season. Leave to bubble away.
• Fry the eggs in the oil and remaining butter, basting from time to time until the whites are set and yolks runny. Sprinkle with sea salt if you like.
• Grill the crumpets. Divide the bacon, sausages and beans between 3 of the crumpets, top each with a fried egg, then spread your choice of sauce (if using) on the lid of your crumpet sandwich. Shut together and serve.
