Air Fryer Crumpets

Ingredients

• 4 crumpets (store-bought or homemade)
• 1–2 tbsp butter (optional)
• Your choice of toppings:
  • Honey or jam
  • Peanut butter
  • Cream cheese
  • Avocado and egg
  • Cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat air fryer
   Heat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F) for about 2–3 minutes.
2. Prepare crumpets
   Place crumpets in the air fryer basket in a single layer. No oil is needed.
3. Air fry
   Cook for 4–6 minutes until golden, crisp on the outside, and warm through.
   • For softer crumpets: 3–4 minutes
   • For extra crispy edges: 6–7 minutes
4. Add butter and toppings
   Spread with butter while hot so it melts into the holes, then add your favorite topping.

Tips

• For a cheesy version, add grated cheese during the last 1–2 minutes of cooking.
• Frozen crumpets can go straight into the air fryer; cook for 6–8 minutes.
• Avoid overcrowding the basket so they toast evenly.

Serving idea: Try them with butter and honey for breakfast, or top with scrambled eggs and cheese for a filling snack.
