Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/4 teaspoon yeast (1 package)
  • 1/3 cup cornmeal

Instructions

  • Put all ingredients in your bread machine and set for the dough cycle. (Usually takes 1 1/2 hours)
  • Sprinkle some cornmeal on your work surface (adding extra flower will make them less soft in the inside!) and roll out your dough, making sure it is about 1/2” thick.
    With a cookie cutter, glass, or a canning jar lid like we use cut out your English Muffins.
  • On a griddle that has been preheated to 375 F, place your muffins and allow them to cook 10 minutes (they will get nice and golden brown). Flip over and cook another 10 minutes.
  • Serve warm with butter or jam. Store in air tight container for up to 4 days.
