Ingredients
  

For the Crumpets
  • 4 pieces Crumpets Use store-bought or homemade varieties for that soft texture we love.
  • 1 tablespoon Bacon Grease This smoky delight enhances flavor; substitute with butter or vegetable oil if needed.
For the Egg Mixture
  • 4 pieces Eggs Fresh eggs yield the best results, adding richness and protein to your meal.
  • 2 pieces Serrano Peppers Adjust these for your spice level; jalapeños are a milder substitute.
For the Cheese
  • 1 cup Habanero Cheese Adds creaminess and spice; swap with cheddar for a milder option.
For Toppings
  • 1 cup Sour Cream A lovely optional topping for creaminess; Greek yogurt works as a substitute.
  • 1 cup Roasted Tomatoes Serve them for a fresh, colorful side; a side salad can work beautifully too.

Equipment

  • non-stick skillet

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients for the Breakfast Eggy Crumpets. You’ll need crumpets, fresh eggs, diced serrano peppers, and habanero cheese. Pre-chop the ingredients to streamline the cooking process.
  2. Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of bacon grease. Allow it to heat until shimmering, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. In a mixing bowl, crack your fresh eggs and beat them until fully combined. Fold in the diced serrano peppers and shredded habanero cheese.
  4. Pour the egg mixture gently over the heated bacon grease in the skillet, covering the crumpets evenly. Allow this to cook for about 1-2 minutes without stirring.
  5. Cook the eggy crumpets for an additional 3-5 minutes, adjusting the heat if necessary to prevent burning, until the eggs solidify and turn golden brown.
  6. Carefully lift the Breakfast Eggy Crumpets from the skillet and transfer them to a plate. Serve hot, optionally garnished with a dollop of sour cream and a side of roasted tomatoes.
