I hate ripping my muffins 🙁

English muffins are not pre-cut in a continuous manner, instead they’re “fork split,” meaning rods like a fork tine were inserted horizontally through the perimeter, making a sort of “tear on the dotted line” arrangement allowing you to peel the top off the bottom. If the pre-splits aren’t close enough for you to evenly peel the pieces apart, use a fork inserted horizontally around the outside to make more splits, then peel. If you use a knife, you don’t get the jagged bumpy hills and valleys inside the muffin which so very nicely hold the melted butter.
they are not cut completely – there is enough of a gap to get your fingers or a fork into to complete the cut, but parts are still intact
