Hi Kathy,

You just poke the tines of the fork in, all around the edge of the muffin, and then pull the two halves apart. It may be just as easy just to pull them apart with your hands and fingers; that's what I usually do.

We have a bagel gillotine, and it is one of the most useful gadgets in our kitchen!

I never knew about splitting english muffins with a fork; interesting. I always used fingers too, as others recommended, perhaps a regular knife sometimes, but never would have thought of an electric knife, not even for a bagle. That to me would be like using a sledge hammer to kill an ant!/grin (and no disrespect meant). ... Or, maybe, if you have one, you could use a bagle biter, or what some call, a guilloteen (I may have spelled that wrong). When they were around, Easier Ways used to have them. It's a two-piece thing where you stand the bagle up in the bottom, and the top piece has like a triangular-shaped razor-kind-of-blade, so that when you press down the bagle is sliced through the middle, or, at least, in half (saying that because if you don't center the bagle just-so in the buttom part, and judge that the blade part is centered, the halves might not be of equal thickness, but it still beats slicing with a knife.

Most english muffins I've seen have the split started already, so to go the rest o the way is usually easy.
     Kathy.
