How To make Basic English Muffins
----------------------------YEAST-FLOUR MIXTURE---------------------------- 2 c All-purpose flour
2 tb Sugar
2 ts Salt
1 Envelope active dry yeast
LIQUID MIXTURE:
1 3/4 c Milk
1/4 c Water
1 tb Butter
REMAINING INGREDS:
1 Egg
4 c All purpose flour, divided
1/2 c Cornmeal
Yeast-flour Mixture: In large bowl of mixer stir together 2 c flour, the sugar, salt and dry yeast; set aside. Liquid Mixture: Heat milk, water and butter until very warm (120 to 130 degrees F). Add gradually to yeast-flour mixture and beat at
medium speed 2 minutes. Add egg and 1 c flour; beat at high speed 2 minutes. Stir in just enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, adding more remaining flour if dough is sticky. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in warm, draft-free place until double, about one hour. Punch down. Cover and let rise again until double, about 45 minutes. Punch down. On lightly floured surface roll out 1/2 inch thick. With a 3 1/4 inch round cutter cut out muffins. Sprinkle cookie sheets lightly with cornmeal. Add muffins, about 1 inch apart. Sprinkle with additional cornmeal. Cover; let rise until double, about 45 minutes. Heat lightly greased griddle or heavy skillet. With wide spatula carefully remove muffins (do not compress or puncture or they will collapse) to griddle. Bake over very low heat 8 to 10 minutes on each side until light brown. (Muffins should
sound hollow when tapped) Cool on racks. To serve, split with fork tines; toast. VARIATIONS - ONION: Add 1 envelope onion soup mix and 3 T nonfat dry milk to yeast-flour mixture and decrease salt to 1 t. Increase butter to 2 T. Substitute 1 3/4 c water for the milk in liquid mixture (total 2 c water).

In my mind muffins would have been baked on the hot plate on top of a Rayburn, Aga, or perhaps a griddle over an open fire / coals. So I doubt that these would have been cut using a pastry cutter. I believe they would have been rolled as small bread (rolls) and baked over direct heat, using a cast iron pan or some kind of griddle. I am guessing these predated traditional oven-baked bread as we know it.
To get a really good rise from your muffin and avoid pinching the edge of the dough, steer clear of using a pastry cutter. Roll the dough into small rolls, about 100g each and proof them as if for burger buns. When they are well proofed you can dip them in the semolina flour and then griddle them. Let me know in the comments if you have any questions!
I like a deep muffin so prefer to use a combination of a cast iron pan on the hob, and placing the pan in the oven. This gives me an even cook and ensures the middle outside is cooked and doesn’t end up with an all too common raw ring around the middle.
Many people say these were originally opened with a fork to give a textured surface. I am not sure if this is true but it does give a magnificent crumb once toasted.
The dough benefits from a bulk-proof overnight in the fridge which gives the bread some complexity in flavour. Traditionally milk wouldn’t have been used but does give a super soft crumb and help with freshness.
This recipe makes just under 900g of dough. I like to weigh the dough after the first proof and then divide it by 9. This makes for a good size muffin and they all fit on my large baking tray together to proof.
Make a big batch and after they have cooled to room temp you can keep them in the freezer.
I am using 13.2% protein flour. You can use flour with a lower protein content or a mixture of flour to get different results. Just remember that the consistency of the dough will change depending on your choice of flour. This is not an issue but something to recognise as you are working with the dough. Understanding your ingredients and how they perform will help with future bakes!
Recipe:
Oven temp: 175c on bake mode
500g White flour
375g Milk 3.5%
8g sachet of instant yeast
10g of sea salt
Total dough weight: 893g
