A delightful twist on classic crumpets, topped with gooey cheese and crispy bacon for a satisfying snack or light meal.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Preheating ensures even cooking and a nice golden finish.
Cook the bacon in a non-stick frying pan until crispy, then set aside on a paper towel to drain.
Cooking the bacon until crispy enhances its flavor and texture.
Place the crumpets on a baking tray and sprinkle each with an even layer of cheddar cheese.
Using a baking tray makes it easier to transfer the crumpets to the grill.
Tear the cooked bacon into small pieces and distribute evenly over the cheese on each crumpet.
Tearing the bacon into smaller pieces ensures every bite has a bit of bacon.
Sprinkle ground pepper and paprika over the top for added flavor.
Adjust the seasoning to your taste preferences.
Place the baking tray under the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Keep an eye on the crumpets to prevent overcooking.
Serve the crumpets warm and enjoy your delicious creation.
Serving warm ensures the cheese remains gooey and delightful.
