ENGLISH MUFFINS

I've used this delicious recipe for about 29 years. They are very good... much better than any store-bought English Muffins I've ever had.

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     English Muffin Recipes

Time 2h15m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup milk
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
¼ cup melted shortening
6 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Warm the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Mix in the sugar, stirring until dissolved. Let cool until lukewarm. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, combine the milk, yeast mixture, shortening and 3 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Add salt and rest of flour, or enough to make a soft dough. Knead. Place in greased bowl, cover, and let rise.
  • Punch down. Roll out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut rounds with biscuit cutter, drinking glass, or empty tuna can. Sprinkle waxed paper with cornmeal and set the rounds on this to rise. Dust tops of muffins with cornmeal also. Cover and let rise 1/2 hour.
  • Heat greased griddle. Cook muffins on griddle about 10 minutes on each side on medium heat. Keep baked muffins in a warm oven until all have been cooked. Allow to cool and place in plastic bags for storage. To use, split and toast. Great with orange butter, or cream cheese and jam.

WHOLE-WHEAT ENGLISH MUFFINS



Whole-Wheat English Muffins image

Yes, it is worth your while to make English muffins from scratch. Not only is the texture lighter and crisper, homemade muffins taste better, too - yeasty, wheaty, complex. You will need to sear these muffins on the stove top before baking. That's what gives them their unique crunch on their bottoms. This recipe does not require muffin rings, but if you have them and would like to use them, go right ahead. Just add a few minutes onto the baking time to accommodate the muffins' increased thickness. Then fork-split them, toast and serve with plenty of butter. After all, that's what those crevices are made for.

Time 35m

Yield 6 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons/7 grams active dry yeast (1 packet)
4 tablespoons/60 grams unsalted butter
1/2 cup/120 milliliters plain yogurt
1/2 cup/120 milliliters warm whole milk
1/2 tablespoon/7 milliliters honey
1 teaspoon/5 grams fine sea salt
1 cup/125 grams whole-wheat flour
1 cup/125 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon/4 grams baking soda
Cornmeal, preferably coarse, as needed

Steps:

  • In a small bowl combine yeast and 1/3 cup warm water (80 milliliters) and let rest until yeast has dissolved, about 5 minutes.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter and put it in a large bowl. Whisk in yogurt, milk, honey, salt and the yeast mixture.
  • Add flours and baking soda to bowl and beat thoroughly with a spoon or rubber spatula until well combined. Cover bowl and let rest in a warm spot for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until dough has doubled.
  • Heat oven 350 degrees. Lightly dust a small baking sheet with cornmeal.
  • Place a large skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon butter. Using a large ice cream scoop or 1/2 cup measuring cup, drop batter into skillet to form round muffins about 4 inches in diameter, mounding the batter in the center. (You may need to coax the dough a little with your fingers, so be careful of the hot pan, and don't worry if they're not perfectly circular.) Repeat until you have 3 muffins, leaving the rest of the batter for a second batch. Reduce heat to low. Cover skillet with lid or baking sheet and cook 3 to 5 minutes, until bottoms are golden brown. (Be careful not to let them burn.)
  • Uncover skillet and flip muffins using a spatula. Cover again and cook 2 to 4 minutes or until the other sides are golden brown. Place muffins on prepared baking sheet. Repeat using remaining batter and another tablespoon of butter.
  • Bake muffins for 6 to 9 minutes, or until puffed and cooked through. Split the muffins with a fork and toast before eating.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly affect the taste of your English muffins. Use fresh, organic ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the English muffins tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then stop.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: The dough needs to rise in a warm place in order to double in size. This will take about 1-2 hours.
  • Cook the English muffins over medium heat: Cooking them over medium heat will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Serve the English muffins warm: English muffins are best served warm. You can toast them, or simply split them and butter them.

Conclusion:

These English muffins are a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can easily make your own English muffins at home. So next time you're in the mood for a tasty and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try!
