Time 2h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
⅓ cup warm water
1 ½ cups bread flour
1 ½ cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 ¾ teaspoons kosher salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
⅓ cup whole milk yogurt
⅓ cup whole milk
2 tablespoons salted butter, melted
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon coarse cornmeal, or as needed
3 tablespoons ghee (clarified butter), divided

Steps:

  • Combine yeast and warm water in a small bowl and let bloom for 5 minutes.
  • Combine bread flour, whole wheat flour, salt, and baking soda in a medium bowl. Warm yogurt and milk to room temperature in microwave for 30 to 45 seconds.
  • Combine yeast mixture, yogurt, milk, butter, and honey in the bowl of stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Turn mixer to lowest speed and slowly add the flour mixture. Increase speed to medium; beat until dough is smooth and sticky, about 5 minutes. Turn dough out into a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly dust a baking sheet with cornmeal.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a 9x13-inch rectangle. Cut the rectangle into 8 square pieces or use a 4-inch round cookie cutter.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons of the ghee in a skillet over medium heat. Place 4 of the muffins in the skillet, cover with a lid, and cook until the bottoms are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Uncover skillet and flip muffins with a spatula. Cover again and cook until the other side is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and lightly press into the cornmeal to coat. Repeat using remaining muffins and ghee.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until centers are cooked through, 6 to 9 minutes. Cool for 5 to 10 minutes, then split with a fork.

These muffins are a great way to use up leftover honey. I always have a jar of honey in my pantry, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses it up.
