HOMEMADE ENGLISH MUFFINS



Homemade English Muffins image

You can't make a true homemade English muffin without using bread flour. It gives the muffins the chewy texture you identify with and love. I've tried many recipes with both AP and bread flour, and this is the best of them all.

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     English Muffin Recipes

Time 2h10m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 8

21 ounces white bread flour (4 1/2 cups)
2 ¼ teaspoons instant dry yeast
2 teaspoons kosher salt
14 ounces lukewarm whole milk
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 large egg, at room temperature, slightly beaten
¼ cup semolina, or as needed

Steps:

  • Place flour into a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle yeast on one side of the flour and salt on the other side. Add milk, sugar, butter, and egg; mix to make a soft dough.
  • Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until soft, smooth, and stretchy, about 10 minutes.
  • Place dough into a large oiled bowl. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double the size, about 1 hour.
  • Deflate the dough and divide into 16 pieces. Press each into English muffin rings. Sprinkle both sides with semolina and let rest another 30 minutes.
  • Preheat a griddle to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), or a heavy-based frying pan over low heat. Cook the muffins on the preheated griddle or pan until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a muffin reaches 200 F (93 degrees C), 7 to 10 minutes per side.

Time 2h15m

Yield 18

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.
