If an English muffin is simply referred to as a muffin in the U.K. then what an (American) muffin called? e.g. Blueberry muffin.

Also a muffin. Which is confusing. Although muffins as in flattish breadcakes are perhaps less prevalent these days, whereas muffins as in fluffy chocolate (or whatever) mounds are everywhere!
We should call them American muffins, really, I suppose.

I tend to refer to breakfast muffins (the sort McDonalds serve), muffins (the sweet chocolate or blueberry ones) and bread rolls, which are sometimes called muffins, depending on where in the UK one lives.
They all taste good

Oh no, a crumpet is something completely different. I adore a crumpet - all those little crevices for the butter to melt into, and then it running down your chin as you eat it. And the finger-licking afterwards...

I really want a crumpet now. I'd take a crumpet over a muffin (English or American), any day of the week

I have not had a crumpet in years. Now I want one.

They do, but they are subtly different. Spongier, slightly sweeter (I think).
It looks a LOT like a U.S. "English Muffin" but it's not. They are clearly related and I think "English Muffin" is the U.S. "imitation."

Ah... okay, thank you.
In GB, we could find "English Muffins" (as well as crumpets). I always that was silly. Every muffin in England is technically an "English Muffin." *nods head*

I can see how you might think that. Crumpets are more sort of doughy, muffins are more like bread.
This is a picture of muffins:

They are basically bread, but kind of flat, with a good crust top and bottom, although not tough. You split them, preferably by hand rather than with a knife to get a nice rough surface, then toast them, then slather them with butter.
Then they look like this:

Yum, eh? That's missing only a tiny smear of Marmite (it's OK, the Marmite crisis is now resolved
)I'll shut up about muffins and crumpets now.
