A Little History on Muffins

Muffins, as we know them today, have evolved over time. Originally, the term “muffin” referred to small, flat cakes that were cooked on a griddle. These English muffins were a staple in households across the United Kingdom. Over time, as baking techniques developed, so did the muffin we recognize today—light, fluffy, and baked in individual portions.

The chocolate chip muffin, in particular, became popular in the 20th century. Combining the rich flavor of chocolate with a soft, tender crumb, it quickly earned its place in bakeries and home kitchens alike. The addition of chocolate chips made them a hit, especially among kids and chocolate lovers. Today, they are a staple in the muffin world, with endless variations to suit every taste.
