Trendy pastries, Açai bowls and avocado on sourdough toast have all made their way onto breakfast menus up and down the country throughout the years - but for many Brits, the traditional Full English still reigns supreme.
Fry-up connoisseurs across the UK now have a reason to celebrate, as iconic brand Fray Bentos has taken the best elements of its pub grub classic and wrapped it in pastry to create a new ‘All Day Breakfast Pie’.
The pie contains all the fry-up favourites we know and love - tomatoey baked beans, chunks of succulent Cumberland sausage, bacon and black pudding - in perfect proportions and encased in Fray Bentos’ signature puff pastry lid.
Ready in just 25-30 minutes, it's the perfect pie for people who want the familiar comfort of an all-day breakfast without the hassle of cooking one - and all the washing up that comes with it.
Currently available in Home Bargains, the All Day Breakfast Pie is priced at just £1.50 - what a bargain.

Kirsty Chalmers, Senior Brand Manager at Fray Bentos, said: “We’re incredibly excited to finally announce our new All Day Breakfast Pie, which we’ve been working on and perfecting for more than a year.
“Every pub worth their salt has an all-day breakfast option on the menu, so it was a no-brainer that we should create a pie that incorporated one of the UK’s most treasured dishes.
“The All-Day Breakfast Pie contains everything us Brits love about fry ups and Fray Bentos pies, all coming together in one delicious product - what could be better than that?”
The launch comes as Fray Bentos announces the return of a much-loved and much-missed pie, following a 10-year break after being 'inundated' with requests to bring it back.
Discontinued in 2011, the Chicken Curry Pie is now back on shelves after the brand received countless social media messages, phone calls and emails demanding the pie be reinstated.
The recipe has been tweaked to contain creamed and desiccated coconut, enhancing the flavour of the filling and creating a creamier taste and texture.
The Chicken Curry Pie, also priced at £1.50, is currently available in store at Asda and on Ocado - but you'll have to pay slightly more as it's priced at £1.75.
Kirsty added: “We know many people will be incredibly pleased to hear that we’re bringing back our Chicken Curry Pie.
“After removing the pie from shelves, we were inundated with emails and messages pleading for us to bring it back, with it being described by one person as the ‘pie of the Gods’.
“It’s by far the most requested flavour we’ve had and demands became so frequent we couldn’t ignore them any longer. We’re thrilled that we’ve been able to answer the prayers of so many pie fans.”
To celebrate its return, Fray Bentos has sent a Chicken Curry Pie to many of the people who got in touch to ask them to bring the flavour back.
Kirsty added: “The feedback we’ve received from them has been amazing and reaffirms our decision to bring the pie back. We’ve already got a five-star review on the Asda website.”
