Homemade English Muffins

Delicious homemade English muffins that are perfect for breakfast or brunch.

Ingredients

  • white bread flour (600 grams)
  • instant dry yeast (2.25 teaspoons)
  • kosher salt (2 teaspoons)
  • lukewarm whole milk (396 grams)
  • white sugar (30 grams)
  • unsalted butter (28 grams)
  • large egg (1 count)
  • semolina (60 grams)

Instructions

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