5 Delicious (And Perhaps Unexpected) Ways to Enjoy Gluten-Free English Muffins
Transitioning to a gluten-free lifestyle can feel overwhelming, confusing and (let’s face it) depressing at first. Whether it's due to celiac disease, gluten sensitivity, or simply a wellness choice, finding satisfying and versatile gluten free alternatives is key to continuing to enjoy your favourite meals. One unexpected staple that shouldn't be overlooked? The humble and ever-versatile Classic English Muffin. Here are five tasty and creative ways to enjoy our gluten-free Classic English Muffins that will delight the whole family—yes, even the picky eaters!
1. Gluten-Free Breakfast Burger
Start your morning off on the right note with a hearty gluten-free breakfast burger. Toast a gluten-free English Muffin until golden, then layer it with a cooked egg, crispy bacon or a plant-based patty, a slice of avocado, and a sprinkle of cheese, and even some extra veggies if you fancy. Add a dash of your favourite relish or sauce for extra flavour. This protein-packed meal is perfect for busy mornings and will keep you satisfied until lunch.
Why it works: It offers a balance of protein, healthy fats, and carbs without compromising on flavour or texture. It’s also easy to prepare ahead of time and assemble in minutes.
Tip for parents: Turn this into a fun gluten free kids breakfast by using smaller eggs or mini patties to fit their little hands.
2. Mini Gluten-Free Pizzas
The end of gluten certainly doesn’t mean the end of cozy pizza nights! Our gluten-free English Muffins make an excellent base for quick and easy mini pizzas. Simply split and toast your muffins (make sure they have defrosted first!), spread with gluten-free Passata, top with shredded cheese and your favourite toppings, and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly. We also like to finish ours with a drizzle of balsamic glaze and a handful of rocket.
Why it works: These are customisable, quick, and satisfy pizza cravings without the hassle of a large pizza or finding toppings to suit the whole family.
Tip for parents: Let your children create their own mini pizzas—it’s a great way to get them involved in the kitchen and more excited about gluten free alternatives.
3. Avocado Smash with a Twist
It was never just a trend for us. For a fresh and easy breakfast or snack, try avocado smash on a toasted gluten-free English Muffin. Mash a ripe avocado with lemon juice, salt, and chilli flakes, and pile it high on your muffin. Top with feta cheese (or Meredith cheese if you’re feeling fancy), cherry tomatoes, or a poached egg for extra razzle dazzle.
Why it works: It’s nutrient-dense, delicious, and gives you that satisfying crunch and creaminess. Plus, it’s incredibly Instagram-worthy.
Add a protein boost: Top with smoked salmon or grilled chicken for a more filling meal.
4. Sweet Treat: Nut Butter & Fruit Stack
Don’t overlook the potential of gluten-free English Muffins for your 3pm sweet treat. Spread almond or peanut butter on a warm muffin, then layer with banana slices, strawberries, or even a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
Why it works: This combo is great for a gluten free breakfast or snack and hits the sweet spot without refined sugar. It also provides energy for kids and adults alike to keep on pushing throughout even the most troublesome afternoons!
Tip for parents: Prep these ahead of time before your littles come home from school, then assemble for the perfect snack to fuel them up for their sports, homework and everything else they do before dinner.
5. English Muffin Sliders
Dreaming of the days when you could eat canapés with no worries? Liberate gluten-free English Muffins can be sliced and used to create bite-sized sliders. Fill with grilled chicken, wagyu, or your favourite vegetarian option. Add a dash of slaw, pickles, and gluten free relishes for maximum flavour.
Why it works: We don’t need to tell you that sliders are universally beloved, and also super easy to customise. Using gluten free English muffins as a bun alternative makes them as inclusive as they are delicious.
Hosting tip: Assemble a fun and interactive slider bar with various toppings so everyone can build their own.
