Method

  1. Whisk the eggs, milk, cinnamon and 2 tsp icing sugar in a wide, shallow bowl. Add the crumpets and soak for 2 mins each side.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the berries, 1 tbsp icing sugar and 1 tbsp water in a small saucepan over a low heat for 5 mins or until warmed through and syrupy. Add the maple syrup.
  3. Melt the butter in a nonstick frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the crumpets for 2-3 mins each side until golden brown and piping hot.
  4. Divide the crumpets between 2 plates and dust with the remaining 1 tsp icing sugar. Top with the yogurt, spoon over the berry compote and finish by drizzling with extra maple syrup, if you like.
    • Freezing and defrosting guidelines

      Freeze cooked crumpets only. Once completely cool, wrap well in a double layer of clingfilm and freeze for up to 1 month. Defrost fully before eating. For more tips on freezing and defrosting food, read our article Love Your Freezer.
