muffins

Baked breakfast cups

Muffins are small, rounded quick breads typically baked in individual cup-shaped molds.

American-style muffins are soft and cake-like, often studded with blueberries, chocolate chips, or nuts, and eaten as breakfast items or snacks.

English muffins are flatter, denser, and split horizontally for toasting.

I grabbed a blueberry muffin with my coffee.

In British slang, muffin top refers to flesh that spills over tight waistbands.
