If you fancy a proper indulgent breakfast or brunch, this Chocolate Peanut Butter & Banana Crumpet French Toast is the way to go. It’s got everything—soft, golden crumpets soaked in a sweet, vanilla-infused batter, fried to perfection, then topped with gooey peanut butter, fresh banana slices, and a drizzle of rich melted chocolate. I even added some salted toasted peanut for a crunch. A splash of maple syrup finishes it off nicely. It’s a cracking twist on French toast, using crumpets instead of bread for extra fluffiness and those lovely little holes to soak up all the flavours. Perfect for a weekend treat with a cuppa!

Ingredients

  • • 4 crumpets
  • • 2 eggs
  • • ½ cup milk (or plant-based alternative)
  • • 1 tbsp sugar (optional)
  • • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • • ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
  • • 1 tbsp butter (for frying)
  • • 2 tbsp peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
  • • 1 banana, sliced
  • • ¼ cup chocolate chips or melted chocolate
  • • 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey
Instructions

In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
Dip each crumpet into the egg mixture, ensuring they soak up the batter for about 20–30 seconds per side. Let any excess drip off.
Heat butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Place the soaked crumpets in the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly crisp.
Spread a generous layer of peanut butter over the warm crumpets. Top with sliced bananas and drizzle with melted chocolate and maple syrup or honey.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness. Serve immediately while warm.
