Bing! Which recipe is the best?

Here is another roujiamo with the type of filling used across China away from the dish's homeland. It is pork based, where as the Muslim culture of Shaanxi and Xi'an uses beef or lamb.

 

I think this image maybe looks less like muffins (as we call English muffins in actual England! 🤣). I would never have even considered using English muffins for roujiamo. I can get English Muffins here. Chinese English muffins! 😂

Am I the only one who thinks those things look an awful lot like what we in the US call English muffins, which are also made from a yeast dough, are pan-fried and served in a split fashion?

@Tropicalsenior's crumb looks much tighter than the usual "nooks and crannies" openness of Thomas' muffins.
