Total Time: 3 hrs 8 mins Preparation Time: 3 hrs Cook Time: 8 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 10
• 1 cup milk
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1 egg
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 3 cups all-purpose flour (or more)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast
• 1/4 cup cornmeal, to dust on bottom of muffins

Recipe

• 1 start the dough cycle.
• 2 when the cycle is finished.
• 3 sprinkle corn meal over your work area.
• 4 use your hands to pat the dough into a 1/2 inch thick.
• 5 turn the dough so that each side gets lightly coated with cornmeal.
• 6 cut into 8 to 10 rounds.
• 7 an empty large tuna can works well when you run out of dough gather up the trimmings and cut more rounds. (i use a large mouth glass).
• 8 place the rounds on a baking sheet, cover and let rise for 20- 30 minutes--until not quite double.
• 9 (nuwave/flavorwave directions) - once dough as risen, place in nuwave/flavorwave in round pan. set the timer for 8 min on * 8 for temp or 80 % heat *. for theses you do no want to use hi heat, as they will brown to fast and will burn.
• 10 note: they will come out "puffy". i have left in traditional cooking if you want them "flatter". either way they come out wonderful!
• 11 normal cooking directions: in frying pan, or on low flame. cook on medium heat for 7 minutes on each side. this will give the flat look for the english muffins.
• 12 heat a dry cast iron skillet or griddle over a low flame.
• 13 (i do spray mine with pam).
• 14 cook the muffins about 5 to 7 minutes on each side.
• 15 they should be golden brown when you turn them.
• 16 split the muffins with a fork or serrated knife and serve warm.
• 17 these freeze well and can be reheated in the microwave or toasted.
• 18 note: these will be "puffy" if made in the nuwave/flavorwave ovens. if you like the traditional ones, i have left the conventional cooking as well.
