English Muffins

English muffins are flat, circular breads, about one inch high, usually made from flour, milk, butter, and yeast, and they are often dusted with cornmeal. The muffins are cooked on a griddle, sometimes with special English muffin rings. English muffins have a golden-brown top and a white middle so soft that the muffins are horizontally split with the fingers or a fork (not a knife). English muffins are toasted and can be spread with butter, jams, and jellies or used as a sandwich bread.
