muffin

Baked blueberry holder

A muffin is a small, round baked good, typically sweet and studded with fruit or chocolate chips: blueberry muffin, bran muffin.

American muffins rise into a domed top and are eaten as breakfast or snacks.

English muffins are flatter, yeast-leavened, and split for toasting.

A muffin top is the roll of flesh that spills over tight waistbands—named for its resemblance to the baked good.
