English muffins
Description
Perfect with tea and coffee. These muffins are naturally unsweetened. They are served warm for breakfast with butter or jam. If the muffins have cooled, they can be toasted in a toaster. They are used as a base for various sandwiches, including eggs royale, eggs Benedict, and Florentine eggs. English muffins are very easy and quick to prepare, and can be kept all day, simply reheating slightly before serving. Serve warm or chilled. Ideal with tea.
