Breakfast eggy crumpets
This cheeky little version of eggy bread is one of my favourite breakfasts - particularly if I've got a hangover! Brown sauce is great with the eggs but maple syrup is fantastic with the smoky bacon, so take your pick. I got the idea of adding some chilli from a scrambled eggs dish I had in Italy – delicious.
