How To make English Muffins 3
Ingredients
SPONGE:
1/4
cup
water, warm
1
sugar, pinch
1
each
yeast, active dry, package
1 1/2
cup
milk, warm
2
tablespoon
butter, unsalted, cut in small pieces, softened
1
tablespoon
honey
2 1/2
cup
flour, all-purpose
DOUGH:
1 1/4
teaspoon
salt
2 1/4
cup
flour, all-purpose
1
cornmeal
Directions:
Sponge: butter a 4 quart mixing bowl. In a small bowl, combine warm water and pinch sugar. Sprinkle yeast over water mixture. Let stand until yeast dissolves and bubbles.
While yeast is dissolving, in buttered bowl combine warm milk, butter and honey. Stir until butter is almost melted. Stir in 2 1/2 cups flour and dissolved yeast. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Dough: butter a 4 quart bowl. Stir salt into bread mixture. Stir in enough of remaining flour with a wooden spoon until dough forms a ball. Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes, adding enough of remaining flour to keep dough from sticking.
Place dough in buttered bowl, turning once to butter surface. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double, about 45 minutes. Punch dough down. Divide dough in half. Sprinkle board generously with cornmeal. Turn dough out on board. Sprinkle cornmeal over top of dough. Gently roll half the dough at a time 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a floured biscuit cutter into 3 inch rounds. Repeat with remaining half of dough. Knead, reroll, and cut dough scraps once, if desired.
Arrange dough rounds on ungreased baking sheets 2 inches apart. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double, about 30 minutes.
Heat a lightly oiled, nonstick griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Lift some of the dough rounds with a spatula onto griddle. Cook for 2 minutes on each side. Reduce heat to medium. Cook, turning every few minutes, 13-18 minutes until done in center. Cool on racks. Repeat cooking remaining muffins.
Split muffins in half crosswise with the tines of a fork.

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
Easy Sourdough English Muffin Recipe | No Ring Cutter | Sourdough Discard Recipe
I'll show you how to make the easiest and most delicious sourdough english muffins! Did you know that some store bought sourdough english muffins use vinegar to get the right flavor?!! I was shocked when I learned that and decided to make my own. Mine are thick and fluffy and I’ll show you how I get the perfect nooks and crannies! Many english muffin recipes use ring cutters but I don’t like dealing with dough scraps so I’ll show you how I make mine without them. I'm making the vegan version of these in the video but will give you recipe options for the non-vegan version.
Recipe (yields 8 large english muffins)
500g bread flour (approximately 3 cups + 2 Tbs)
2 tsp himalayan pink salt
1 Tbs white sugar or honey
3 Tbs grapeseed oil (any vegetable oil is fine, or substitute with melted butter!)
2 Tbs unfed starter from fridge
1 ¼ cup room temperature water
¼ cup of fine cornmeal + 1 Tbs flour for dusting
Optional additional grapeseed oil for pan

The EASIEST English Muffins EVER! You’ll Think They Are Store Bought!
Today Kevin is teaching you how to make ENGLISH MUFFINS! These are so easy you will never buy them from the store again!
Recipe:
1 ¼ cup warm water
1 Tbsp. Sugar
1 Tsp. Yeast
2 Tbsp. Melted Butter or Oil
2 ¾ Cups flour (Plus a little extra)
1 tsp. Salt
Cornmeal for dusting
Mix warm water and sugar in a large bowl and sprinkle yeast
on top. Let rest, covered, for 10 minutes.
Add oil and salt to mixture and then add in the flour until it is only
slightly sticky.
Put dough on floured surface and knead for 3-4 minutes. Add flour
if necessary to stop dough from sticking to kneading surface.
Put the dough into an oiled bowl and cover with a towel until the
dough has double in size. About 1 hour.
Knead the dough a couple times and then divide into 10 equalish
balls.
Sprinkle corn meal on a piece of parchment paper and place the dough
balls on top. Flatten each ball to about 1inch tall. Cover and let rest for
20 more minutes.
Heat a frying pan on low heat and lightly oil. Place as many of the
muffins in the pan as you can and cook for about 8 minutes or until brown
on the bottom. Flip and cook another 5 minutes or until done.
Repeat with remaining dough balls.
