A food historian once observed that muffins were invented so Americans could eat cake for breakfast. She was correct – they really haven’t caught on in the rest of the world, but we do like our sweets along with our morning coffee.
And where better to get them than Tammie’s Corner House, which serves them up every morning in a variety of flavors – blueberry-almond, cranberry, and oatmeal-cinnamon are among the favorites. They’re fluffy, delicious, and huge – a muffin that will set you back three bucks is almost big enough for two, or for one person who really loves cake…
