Why I Love This Recipe

I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical the first time I made these…but they completely won me over. They’re warm, fluffy, and surprisingly close to an English muffin, making them perfect for everything from breakfast sandwiches to butter and jam. Best of all, they come together in just a few minutes with ingredients you probably already have on hand.

Enjoying The Leftovers

Making a few extra is always a good idea because they’re perfect to grab for breakfast throughout the week.

Storing

Store the English muffins in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months with parchment paper between each muffin to prevent sticking.

Reheating

Toast the English muffins in a toaster, toaster oven, air fryer, or skillet until warmed through and lightly crisp. If frozen, thaw overnight in the refrigerator or toast straight from frozen for an easy breakfast.
