Probably not all of you, but I'd hazard a guess and say most of us have been preparing English Breakfast Muffins incorrectly for years!
Bold statement that - but if you use a knife to cut open your muffins, then you have been doing it wrong...
I've been enjoying English Breakfast Muffins for years and up until recently I have always used a knife to cut them open:
Sometimes I would try and use a zig-zag pattern with the knife to try and replicate how they look at McDonalds but no matter what I did they didn't look quite the same and you couldn't put too much butter on your muffin as a lot would just drip off the sides.
The one day whilst watching the Backyard Chef on YouTube I say him using a FORK to split a muffin in half!
From this point onwards I have always used a fork to split my muffin in two and it's a game changer for sure!
Not quite as quick as using a knife but much more enjoyable this way.
Served with lashings of butter using the fork method to split your muffin is the most delicious way to eat them!
So, why don't they tell you this on the packaging, well they sort of do and don't - although on the packet I have, it doesn't explicitly say to use a fork (or not to use a knife) it simply says "Split the muffin in half" rather than "cut" it in half.
