SOURDOUGH ENGLISH MUFFINS



Sourdough English Muffins image

Here is an easy recipe that makes muffins much better than store-bought and is also a good way to use your extra sourdough. I found this recipe on a website called 'The Fresh Loaf' and tweaked a few of the details based on my experience. There is some amount of planning ahead needed as you have to start the night before, but it is definitely worth it.

Time 9h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup milk
½ cup sourdough starter
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cornmeal, or as needed

Steps:

  • Stir milk and sourdough starter together in a large bowl until mostly smooth. Mix in flour. Cover bowl and leave to ferment at room temperature, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Add sugar, baking soda, and salt to the preferment, stirring just enough to incorporate. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead for 4 to 5 minutes, adding as much of the 1/2 cup flour as needed to make the dough workable.
  • Use a rolling pin to flatten dough to an even 1/2-inch thickness. Cut into 4-inch rounds using a clean tuna can or biscuit cutter; keep edges well floured to avoid sticking.
  • Sprinkle a thin layer of cornmeal over a sheet of waxed paper. Arrange cut-outs over the cornmeal. Sprinkle a thin layer over the dough. Let rest for 45 minutes.
  • Heat a griddle or cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Cook English muffins until lightly browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

SOURDOUGH APPLE CRUMBLE CAKE



Sourdough Apple Crumble Cake image

I like this recipe as it is a good one to use up discarded sourdough starter. It is moist, tasty, quick and easy to make. It can be varied depending on what fresh or dried fruit you have at hand, it is also nice with pecans added to the cake mix, even different spices....just a very versatile recipe. It also stores very well in the fridge up to a week.

2/3 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon salt

Dice the apples and fold through the cake batter. (I have used tinned apples successfully in this recipe). Pour into prepared pan.
  • TOPPING. Soften the butter slightly in the microwave, roughly chop the pecans. Mix all topping ingredients in a bowl till they form a crumb. Sprinkle evenly over the cake batter.

Tips:

  • Use fresh sourdough starter: Active and bubbly starter will give your muffins a better rise and tangy flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use ripe apples: Ripe apples will be sweeter and have a better flavor than unripe apples.
  • Add mix-ins: Feel free to add your favorite mix-ins to the muffins, such as nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the muffins are cooked through.
