Muffin

Muffin

A muffin (sometimes American-style muffin outside the US) is an American English name for a type of semi-sweet cake or quick bread that is baked and generally single-serving. They are similar to cupcakes, although they are usually less sweet and lack frosting. They may have sweet fillings, such as chocolate, toffee, lemons, or blueberries. Savory varieties, such as cornbread muffins or cheese muffins or sometimes just plain muffins, also exist.
