"a bacon butty"
Now to the actual bread.........
What you call a Muffin is not Butt bread.
English muffins are a yeast bread, cooked on a cast iron griddle. ... English muffins are quick baking and have simple ingredients of flour, yeast, salt, water or milk and a little sugar. The dough is mixed up, left to rise and then shaped into the traditional round shape and left to rise once more.
The raw material for a Bacon Butty or Banjo has a plethora of different names depending on the part of the country you come from.
Teacake - Oven Bottom Cake - Baps, Bread Cakes - Softies -----
EnglandIn most of England, a teacake is a light, sweet, yeast-based bun containing dried fruits, most usually currants, sultanas or peel. It is typically split, toasted, buttered, and served with tea. It is flat and circular, with a smooth brown upper surface and a somewhat lighter underside. Although most people refer to a teacake as a cake containing fruit, in East Lancashire, certain areas of Yorkshire and Cumbria the name currant teacake is used to distinguish fruited 'cakes' from plain bread rolls. In West Yorkshire, a large plain white or brown bread roll 9 inches or 225 mm diameter is often also called a teacake and is used to make very large sandwiches. Many cafes sell these for breakfast or midmorning snacks. In Kent, the teacake is known as a "huffkin", which is often flavoured with hops, especially at the time of harvesting hops in September. In Sussex, a luxurious version of the teacake with added aromatics such as nutmeg, cinnamon and rose water is still sometimes made and called a manchet or Lady Arundel's Manchet.
In East Lancashire, the former West Riding of Yorkshire, Cumbria and elsewhere in the North like the town of Barnsley, a teacake is a round bread roll which is cut in half to make sandwiches. They do not usually contain any sort of dried fruit. They can be made with either white, brown, wholemeal, or Granary flour (a brand of flour produced by Hovis, made by malting wheat, crushing the grains, roasting them, and then mixing them with brown flour).[2] A favourite way to eat them is to slice them into fingers, toast and then spread with butter and Bovril or Marmite.
As an aside, I like Current teacakes, buttered and filled with cheese and ham with a nice mug of NATO Standard tea.
