— March 11, 2025 — Lifestyle
People want protein-packed breakfasts, so much so that when building breakfast sandwiches, they want buns that deliver protein even before adding eggs, bacon, or a sausage patty—and Queen St. Bakery's Superfood English Muffins deliver. This nutrient-dense, fiber-rich, gluten-free twist on the classic English muffin is made with a base of white bean and sorghum, and one Superfood English Muffin boasts five grams of protein. Additionally, these vegan-friendly English muffins are a source of fiber, iron, and calcium thanks to nutritious alternative flours.

Fueled by only all-natural ingredients, the school-safe English muffins crafted in Canada avoid common allergens like dairy, peanuts and tree nuts, sesame, egg, and wheat.

At Natural Products Expo West 2025, Queen St. Bakery's Superfood English Muffins won the NEXTY Award in the Breads and Bakery category.
