I want to enjoy these for breakfast with either peanut butter or an egg.
I currently have some and the sugar is 1gram but I'm wondering if there is an even better kind?

I use Thomas' 100% Whole Wheat English Muffins. The added sugar is okay. The requirement for breads is that they contain 3 grams of fiber per one ounce serving. These meet that requirement. I believe that the Pepperidge Farms brand is also acceptable.

Oooh... I just bought those today! Is a serving size 1 whole muffin or just a half?

One grain serving is 30 grams. Thomas English Muffins are 62 grams each so one half is equal to one grain serving; a whole muffin equals 2 grains. Remember, only the 100% whole wheat variety is approved.

Hi,


Bread needs sugar for the yeast to activate and rise.

Oops, forgot to add that the light english muffins are not approved.
