Description
Fluffy, tangy homemade English muffins with sweet raisins and warm cinnamon, perfect for breakfast.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sourdough starter (active)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup raisins
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
- Cornmeal (for dusting)
Instructions
- Mix together your sourdough starter, milk, and sugar until combined.
- Gradually blend in the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, and raisins until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until it’s smooth and happy.
- Cover it up and let it rise in a warm spot until it doubles in size—about 1-2 hours.
- Roll the dough out to about 1-inch thick and cut out rounds.
- Place the rounds on a baking sheet dusted with cornmeal.
- Let them proof for 30 minutes to get nice and puffy.
- Preheat a skillet over medium heat and cook the muffins for about 7-10 minutes on each side until they look golden brown.
- Serve warm, and optionally slather with maple butter!
Notes
Make sure your sourdough starter is bubbly and active; this helps the muffins rise beautifully.
