English Muffins

 So I figured I would try something a bit more tricky. Though I had to make augmentations for the high altitude, they still worked well - augments not listed below.  Honestly though, just buy them at the store!

Whole Wheat English Muffins

(original recipe here)

Makes: 6 

Prep Time: 2 hours (incl. rising)

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Total Time: 2 hrs 30 minutes

Ingredients: 

2 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)

4 tbsp unsalted butter

1/2 cup plain yogurt

1/2 cup warm whole milk

1/2 tbsp honey

1 tsp salt

1 cup WW flour

1 cup all purpose flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

cornmeal

Directions:

1. Combine yeast and 1/3 cup warm water until yeast dissolves, about 5 minutes

2. Melt 2 tbsp butter and put in large bowl. Whisk in yogurt, milk, honey, salt, and yeast mixture.

3. Add flours and baking soda to bowl and beat thoroughly. Then cover bowl and let sit to rest 1-1 1/2 hours or until dough is doubled.

4. Heat oven to 350 and dust baking sheet with cornmeal.

5. Heat skillet and melt 1 tbsp butter. Using a scoop, drop batter into skillets to form muffins (about 4 inches in diameter) creating 3 in a pan. 

6. Reduce heat to low and cover skillet, cooking for 3-5 minutes or until bottoms are golden brown.

7. Uncover skillet and flip muffins. Then cover again and cook 2-4 minutes.

8. Put muffins on baking sheet and repeat with remaining batter.

9. Once all are completed, bake 6-9 minutes or until puffed and cooked through.

10. Enjoy!
