The lovely people at Newburn Bakehouse challenged me to come up with some innovative crumpet topping ideas for their gluten free crumpets…after a bit of experimentation on a snowy weekend, dessert crumpets were born!

Super easy and simple to put together, these crumpets are perfect for a gourmet afternoon tea or to satisfy a sugar craving when you can’t be bothered to bake.

“Smokin’ Smores” Gluten Free Crumpets

Ingredients

Kit

  • Toaster/grill
  • Cooks blow torch or oven with grill

Method

  1. Toast your crumpet.
  2. Cover the top with a nice thick layer of chocolate spread – it should start melting into the holes of the crumpet.
  3. Add a layer of mini marshmallows on top of your chocolate spread.
  4. BLOWTORCH TIME – on a low setting, carefully brûlée your marshmallows until they start to bubble and go a toasty brown colour. If you don’t have a blow torch, then pop them under the grill in your oven until the marshmallows have coloured.
  5. Eat straight away, while your smores crumpet is all warm and melty. YUM CHOCOLATE.
