They may not look like donuts. And they may not be made of sugar and white flour. But they sure taste like donuts!
These English muffins [which I purchased at Integral Yoga here in town] are absolutely divine!!
Doughy, chewy, yeasty, hearty.
You know it takes a lot for me to choose an alternative to oat-based breakfasts. These whole wheat cinnamon raisin muffins from The Bread Basket are that good.
Slathered with pumpkin spice almond butter, pumpkin butter and banana. With a side of pear.
Happy Chewing ![]()

It’s hard for me to have a non-oat breakfast too. Sometimes I decide to try, but halfway through meal prep, all I want is oats!
Kath,
First off, I’ve been following your blog for the past several months and I love it! You have inspired me to make oatmeal with melted chunks of banana a staple breakfast. Thank you =)
Those english muffins look AMAZING and like you it would take a lot for me to switch from my oatmeal. Next time, I’m in Charlottesville, I’ll have to check out The Bread Basket.
Oh yum – this looks scrumptious
Those look delicious!! I haven’t had English muffins in ages but now I’m suddenly craving one. Have a great day!
I love chewy things.
Chewy bread is one of the best things on earth!
A “muffin” that tastes like a donut? What could possibly be better?!
Kath, My girlfriend sent me the link to your blog just a couple of weeks ago, and I must admit, I’m hooked! I love your food reviews and interesting recipes! Thanks!

There really is something awesome about a good english muffin!

I have yet to find english muffins that are that doughy. I always seem to find ones that are too dry. On the hunt in Mass!
Ooh, what a yummy breakfast!
Wow, no oats for breakfast?! Sometimes it is so hard to skip the normal breakfast but I know when I do try something different I never regret it
They look DELICIOUS
Wow, I’m usually not an English muffin fan, but these sound divine!
Love english muffins hot out of the oven topped with a lil brown sugar and the top broiled!
English muffins that taste like donuts? That’s my kind of breakfast!
Cinnamon raisin, banana, pear, nut butter, all my favorite things in one breakfast! I’ve really been loving my cinnamon raisin bagel thins lately, it just makes the whole apartment smell amazing for hours after they come out of the toaster.
An english muffin that tastes like a donut?! Gotta try one STAT!
That is one incredible sounding English muffin! I love chewy, doughy breads!
There’s a lot of bad English muffins out there and a few really good ones. Yours must be good if they won out over the oats for breakfast!
You had me at doughy!
Wow, those look SO good! Yum! I wonder if they have those muffins in Richmond.
Those look incredible. I’ve heard the Ezekiel english muffins are pretty awesome too. Have you compared?
that looks like an amazingly delicious breakfast!
I still haven’t had a breakfast that I prefer to oatmeal or a yogurt mess.
Those English muffins do sound really good though!
They look nice and soft and chewy. I wish I could find some that good.
Hi Kath! First time commenter here! I’v been reading your blog for about two years, and I have been inspired to start my own weight loss/healthy living blog! I’v loved reading your life progress so far, and I’m excited about what will come next for you with the start of your very own bakery
Thanks for reading!
Hmm… seeing as the only English Muffins I have access to are supermarket plain ones, I think I’ll stick to my oatmeal
This does look like a uniquely delicious English muffins
I adore English muffins…that’s actually the breakfast I had yesterday! I love how chewy they are in the middle, but the edges get so crispy…and jam just sinks into the little air pockets – YUM!!
ENglish muffins with butter and vegemite are the bomb!
