Muffin Magic: Transform A Plain English Muffin Into A Beauty Queen

 

Overview

Actually, there is no such thing as a plain English muffin. Every English muffin is a de facto beauty compared to a plain slice of toast. From the nifty fork split to the inviting nooks and crannies to that special dusting on top (it’s cornmeal), English muffins are special.

But did you know how special? Until we saw the recipe ideas from Wolferman’s—especially the designs on the next page—we had no idea. Enjoy them and the recipe below.

Open-Faced Quiche On An English Muffin

Serves 6 (photo above)

Ingredients

  • 3 Wolferman’s 1910 Original Recipe English Muffins
    (or other traditional English muffin, but Wolferman’s are thicker and more dense)
  • 3-4 strips bacon
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup cream
  • Pinch nutmeg
  • Pinch cayenne
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 pound Gruyère (Swiss) cheese, grated

Preparation

  1. Slice muffin in half. Carefully scoop the center from each half, leaving the outside intact. Brush with melted butter, then toast.
  2. Fry bacon until crisp and drain on paper towel.
  3. Beat egg with cream and seasonings. Pour egg mixture over grated cheese and mix well. Spread cheese and egg mixture on muffins.
  4. Crumble bacon over the top and broil briefly (take care not to burn). Serve immediately.

  French Toast Rounds
