The recipe starts with a mixture of water, milk, and sugar, which is heated in the microwave. Yeast is then added to the mixture and set aside. The dry ingredients, including all-purpose flour and salt, are mixed separately and then combined with the yeast mixture. The resulting dough is loose and slack, creating the characteristic nooks and crannies of English muffins. After mixing in melted butter and an egg, the dough is left to rise, either for an hour or overnight. Once risen, the dough is shaped into muffins and left for another half an hour to rise again. The muffins are then cooked on a skillet and flipped to cook the other side. Finally, the muffins are ready to be enjoyed with a spread of butter or jam. Get ready to indulge in the best homemade English muffins you'll ever taste.
