You know, in that place are times when I read a recipe too think, I didn’t know you lot could exercise that.  Or, I never idea near making that!  I of late flora this recipe for English linguistic communication Muffins on Tasty Kitchen and figured why not?  I LOVE English linguistic communication Muffins!  This recipe was posted yesteryear Sarah Fowler final summertime on her blog.  The argue I believed this recipe was going to work, was that it had five ratings amongst an average of 4.8 out of 5.0.  Sometimes you lot simply similar to know the recipe volition endure worth the attempt too expense.

I’ve never made a lot of bread but I’m starting to larn the hang of this.  I actually love the odour of yeast too flour too baking bread.  Oh yum – I’ll simply demonstrate you!

English Muffins

Pull out the basics!  Milk, butter, honey, water, yeast, cornmeal, flour, tabular array salt too non pictured, I decided to add together role whole wheat flour.

Moooo.  Pour the milk into a pocket-sized saucepan.

Add 2 tablespoons honey.

Add the butter too oestrus over medium.

Warm pan until butter starts to melt, too thence whisk briefly.

Remove pan from oestrus too allow milk mixture to cool to lukewarm.

Line 2 baking sheets amongst waxed newspaper too sprinkle amongst cornmeal.

Pour warm (110 degrees) H2O into large mixing bowl too sprinkle amongst yeast.

Stir gently amongst a fork.  Set aside for 10 minutes, or until yeast has dissolved.

Pour cooled milk into yeast mixture too gently stir until good blended.

Add three cups flour too musical rhythm out vigorously amongst a wooden spoon until smooth.

Beat inwards remaining flour too tabular array salt until the dough is no longer sticky.

Scrape the dough onto a floured surface too dust amongst flour.  Knead dough for 3-4 minutes.

Let dough residual five minutes.

We’re resting, we’re resting.

Roll out dough amongst a rolling pivot to near 1/2 inch thick.

Cut the dough into circles too transfer muffins to prepared baking sheets.

Sprinkle muffins amongst cornmeal too encompass amongst a dry, lightweight towel.

Let muffins  rise until doubled inwards height, near 35-45 minutes.

Heat an Fe form skillet over medium heat.

Carefully house muffins inwards the ungreased skillet.

Cook until lightly browned too set.

Using a spatula, flip the muffins too gear upwards the other side.

I flora that inwards betwixt batches, it was best to scrape the browned cornmeal into the sink too showtime amongst a basically construct clean skillet.  The unloose cornmeal was browning also much when left inwards the pan.

Transfer cooked muffins to a wire rack to cool earlier splitting too toasting!

I was thence excited to assay out ane I even forgot to toast it!  I spooned on to a greater extent than or less apple tree butter too enjoyed!
