English Muffin
A thin, round bread made with yeast dough and baked on a griddle, usually split and toasted for service.
The original english muffin started in 1880, or 137 years ago Samuel Bath Thomas, an innovator and entrepreneur, created the original "Nooks&Crannies" English Muffin after moving from England to the United States. He used a secret process that included griddle baking to create a muffin that was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. He later opened his own bakery in New York City in 1880. Soon, Thomas' English Muffin would become a popular part of the American breakfast.
