I’d heard about British
Style Crumpets being sold at Trader Joe’s via a YouTube video, so that sent
me into motion. I put crumpets on my shopping list and spotted them while at
Trader Joe’s. They had original (which I
find are also sold at my local grocery store) and Cinnamon. Figuring out the points plus values, I decided
they were point friendly enough to come home with me – so home with me they
came!
I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first tried them but
surprisingly they are really good! It
reminded me of a total cross between an English muffin and a pancake. Now that
I think of it, McDonald’s more than likely “developed” their McGriddle around the
lines of a crumpet. The cinnamon flavor is very mild, it just kind of lingers
in the background – it is no where a “BAM! Cinnamon” flavor.
I enjoyed them warm and slightly crisped out of the toaster,
spritzed with spray butter. I found they
were yummy and simple in this manner. But the possibilities are quite endless. Jelly, jam, peanut butter, cookie butter –
even cutting them in half and using it as a breakfast sandwich bread. If I recall they weren’t very expensive,
under $3 a pack and yes, I will be repurchasing them because I did enjoy them.
These are also 3 points plus each.
QUESTION:
Have you ever had a crumpet? If so, how do you enjoy yours?
