Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Combine the water and milk with the yeast and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer, let bubble for 5-10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add in the flour, salt, melted butter and egg and mix with the paddle attachment, not the dough hook!!

  3. 3

    Mix for 5-10 minutes until dough is smooth and sticky.

  4. 4

    Let rise for 1 hour.

  5. 5

    Transfer to a flour surface and flatten with your hands, you don’t want to flatten to much so the muffins aren’t too thin.

  6. 6

    Using a cup or a circle cutter, cut out the muffins and transfer into a cornmeal or semolina flour tray.

  7. 7

    Once cut, knead the scraps and flatten again then cut out again until all out of dough.

  8. 8

    Let rise for 30 minutes.

  9. 9

    Set a pan on low-medium heat and warm it up until you can feel the heat radiate when you place your hand near it, sprinkle with some cornmeal or semolina.

  10. 10

    Place as many english muffins fit on the pan but you still have room to flip (I used the @ourplace large pan and only had to do 2 batches!!).

  11. 11

    Cook for 5-7 minutes on one side then 5-7 minutes of the other.

  12. 12

    The muffins should be toasty brown and still fluffy.

  13. 13

    Set aside and let cool while you cook your other batch or batches.

    Enjoy fresh or you can refrigerate or even freeze for later consumption!
