I don’t write about recipes that often on this blog (my slightly rubbish attempt at food photography/styling above probably illustrates why), but yesterday I stumbled upon something so simple and tasty I had to share it with you.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Black Forest Crumpet!
It is, quite simply, the most delicious thing I’ve eaten for breakfast in ages.
To make it, you toast a crumpet; spread it with Nutella; spread a layer of black cherry jam over the Nutella; then dollop some creme fraiche (or cream or yoghurt) on top to finish. Voila!
Seriously, it tastes AMAZING. And you don’t have to use a crumpet – toast or muffins or bagels would work just as well. The nearest thing to it that I’ve found is Black Forest filled French toast (pic below) at http://www.adventuressheart.com/2011/08/black-forest-cherry-stuffed-french.html, but that involves actual cooking, whereas this recipe (I know, I know, you can hardly call it a recipe…) takes two minutes. I can’t believe no-one has thought of it before.
If you’ve invented an unusual yet yummy breakfast, email me at thetreasurehunteruk@gmail.com. I’d love to hear about (and try) it!









There is frankly nothing better than a nice bit of crumpet, and this sounds extraordinary.
