True MCP cooked teatime treat (7)
I believe the answer is:
crumpet
'teatime treat' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'true mcp cooked' is the wordplay.
'cooked' is an anagram indicator (letters cooked into a new form).
'true'+'mcp'='truemcp'
'truemcp' anagrammed gives 'CRUMPET'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for crumpet that I've seen before include "Thick soft cake eaten toasted and buttered" , "Light, soft yeast cake" , "Round yeast cake eaten hot with butter" , "Thick flat cake, eaten toasted" , "Something eaten toasted and buttered" .)
