English muffins are so popular, they date back to the 10th Century and maybe not English but Welsh and can be confused with another classic British griddle cake the crumpet. But for me they are significantly different, in fact I have previously produced a video for crumpets and those are made from a foamy yeasty batter, while these English muffins are more of an enriched bread recipe that is gently cooked in a skillet.

Samuel Bath Thomas moved from Plymouth England to New York in 1874, he opened the Samuel Thomas bakery in Manhattan and made the 'English Muffin' famous.

There will be historians who dispute this and who knows I could be completely wrong, but does the history of a recipe matter that much when the delightful nooks and crannies that come from the fork splitting and then the toasting of said muffin, followed by ham a poached egg and hollandaise sauce are just so dang delicious?
