It's a loaf of bread baked in a round, flat-bottomed dish that's
been greased and coated with cornmeal. It really does taste like
English muffin. And I guess it looks like one too (depending on
how wide your casserole dish).

Can you tell that I've made it a couple of times? Some of those
stains are over 20 years old.

I make it using the microwave version, in standard loaf pans. When
sliced and toasted you can't tell it wasn't a good Thomas' English Muffin.
