"muffin" meaning in English

See muffin in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈmʌfɪn/ Audio: En-us-muffin.ogg Forms: muffins [plural]
Rhymes: -ʌfɪn Etymology: From earlier moofin, probably a diminutive of Low German Muffe ("small cake"; Muffen (plural)), from Middle Low German muffe (“small pastry”). An alternative, and phonologically less plausible theory suggests a connection to Old French (pain) moflet (“roll”, literally “soft (bread)”).
