I saw Jamie Oliver make these on either a Christmas special or the Jamie at home series. I've always loved [[egg-bread]], always put [[chilli flakes]] in it, often have it with [[bacon]] and I love [[crumpets]], yet it's taken Jamie to work out how to combine the lot into one superb breakfast meal.

====Best recipe review====

''Great idea''

5/5

Even though it riles me to promote anything from this media-seeking P.I.T.A.

{{RecipeIngredients
| 2 [[crumpets]] - '''make your own, they are really easy to make - [[Home-made crumpet recipe|we have a simple recipe here]]'''
| 6 rashers of [[Home smoked bacon|home smoked bacon]], good quality [[Smoked bacon|smoked bacon]] or [[Pancetta|pancetta]]
| 2 large free-range [[Eggs|eggs]]
| 1 teaspoon [[Chili flakes|chilli flakes]]
| Shake of [[Hot pepper sauce|hot pepper sauce]]
| [[Olive oil]]
| [[Freshly ground black pepper]] and [[Sea Salt|sea salt]]
| [[Brown sauce]] to serve
}}
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| Crack the [[Eggs|eggs]] onto a shallow dish
| Sprinkle the [[Chilli flakes|chilli flakes]] over the [[Eggs|eggs]], season with [[Salt|salt]] and [[Pepper|pepper]]. Finish with a shake of [[Hot pepper sauce|hot pepper sauce]] and whisk well with a fork
| Heat a [[Frying pan|frying pan]] with a little [[Olive oil|olive oil]] and [[Fry|fry]] the [[Bacon|bacon]] until it's crispy. The benefit of using good [[Home smoked bacon|home smoked bacon]] or [[Pancetta|pancetta]] is that it has an extremely low water content and it won't fill the pan with liquid
| Soak the crumpets in the [[Egg|egg]] mixture, turning a few times to get as much egg soaked up as you can
| Using the nice [[Bacon|bacon]] flavoured [[Oil|oil]], in the same pan, cook the crumpets for 3 minutes a side. Pour any extra [[Egg|egg]] over the crumpets, that way you don't waste any [[Chili|chilli]]!
}}
===Serving suggestions===
Serve topped with crispy [[Bacon|bacon]] surrounded by [[Brown sauce|brown sauce]]
===Variations===
I seem to recall that Jamie also suggested serving with [[Maple syrup|maple syrup]]. Well, you're welcome to try that. Not while there's a single drop of [[Daddies sauce]] left on this planet!
