English Muffins

[@judith4985]

I just made a double batch of English Muffins. These are excellent, and very light and fluffy! I had to split one, ( with a fork) toast it, and slather it with butter. Delicious! Another winner! ❤️🙏🏻😊

[@marilynneaberdeen2673]

Every time I make crumpets I think of you. Every time I chop an onion I think of you. Thank you Mr Paul. R. I. P.

[@sharonclaridge]

I really will have to give these a go - I love muffins toasted with lots of butter on them!

[@LazyCookPete]

You've done it again Mr Paul! Another cracking old English recipe, perfectly explained and demonstrated. 👍😋 Shared.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Thank you Pete as always. These and pork pies were the only two things I ever ate in the shop, sadly, due to diabetes I've had to both out (except special occasions !!) I hope you both had a nice peaceful Christmas. All the best for 2021.

[@LazyCookPete]

Christmas was indeed a quiet and peaceful time for us, I trust yours was the same. Diabetes has a lot to answer for, but lifestyle change is preferable to taking a cocktail of drugs for me. It is hard looking at all those Christmas goodies without being able to eat them though. I think we'll all be happy to see the back of 2020 Mr Paul!

Really love the simplicity of the recipe and by far the best I have been able to get right off the first recipe! Perfect! Thanks so much!

[@barryrowe657]

Always nice to see your easy recipes explained by you with full cooking instructions. I looked this up again this morning as English Muffins are hard to come by and are expensive as well. I wanted to make eggs Benedict, I had my home made Smoked Australian Salmon sliced, eggs ready to be made into Hollandaise Sauce, Ham sliced, and realised no Muffins, and no where close to me has them so I am making them right now. Please keep making your videos, I love your recipes they all work perfectly, even here in Thailand where it is hot all year round today 33c at 10am.

Thank you Barry, I will and thanks for your feedback.

Hi Stone Henge, Yes, I spent a very restful day, just me and my 5 dogs. We all enjoyed a Duck this year. I hope your day was good too.

@@MrPaulsPantry that nice. My was busy but with the restrictions. Turkey dinner was delicious, to many treats from rum balls to Caribbean mud pies. Take care

[@chrissierichards6802]

Glad you enjoyed day as we did just mike and dogs. I made turkey pies which were very nice. But when I put gelatine in it was running out the bottom. Ideas? I think I had pastry too thin? Were no holes in pastry. Good tasting xx

Merry Christmas Mr.Paul🎄🎄🎄.Thank you for sharing 👍👍👍

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Thank you too .

[@1slysylvia]

Hello thank you so much for sharing the recipe. I made this at home today- used whole wheat flour, oil ..they were really good, soft and pillowy..only they were a little bit doughy in taste..to remove that taste, I baked them in the oven for 7 minutes at 180*C..its a perfect breakfast..slathered with butter and ate it 👍...will you please guide me on how should I remove the doughy taste from the muffins ? Thanks a lot. Here is wishing you and your family a very happy new year

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hello Shweta, it sounds like they were undercooked, however, over the years I've tried making them with whole wheat flour and they were less than perfect. Whole wheat flour is heavier than white flour and even creates some problems in baking ordinary bread. Usually, we have to adjust the yeast when using whole wheat or whole grain flour. A very Happy New Year to you and your family too.

Proper English muffin recipe, thank you 😍

[@MrPaulsPantry]

My pleasure 😊

[@sugarpuff2978]

I remember going back a few years (maybe the 80s and 90s) that you used to get brown muffins which I assume now were wholemeal. I was only a kid and I loved them. I'm wondering now if they were a figment of my imagination though as no one remembers them. I much preferred them to white. Have you ever made wholemeal muffins Mr Paul? How would you suggest making them wholemeal? Thank you.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

We always made both brown and white English muffins. For the brown ones we always used 50/50 wholemeal flour and plain white flour, then proceed as for white muffins.

[@sugarpuff2978]

@@MrPaulsPantry Thank you so much. I'll give them a go! Take care.

[@maxineetheridge6922]

These look wonderful, Mr. Paul. I was just eyeing the commercial version in the grocery store a few days ago. Had a real craving for them toasted and topped with cultured butter and homemade blackberry preserves. I see that you read my mind - or, perhaps I read yours, which is why I came away without buying any! 😊 Anyway, thank you for the recipe. It’s certain to be a gift that keeps on giving. A belated Merry Christmas to you, and Happiest of New Years. 🎉

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hello Max, it's 6.15am here in Granada, Spain and I'm just about to make some of these muffins for breakfast, unfortunately minus the preserves due to diabetes, but certainly with lashings of my home-made butter. I wish you and your family a very Happy & Healthy New Year.

Hello, Mr. Paul! I made your English Muffin recipe last night and they were quick & easy. This morning they had firmed up to a more dense muffin. I toasted, buttered, added a sausage patty & egg and it was delicious. I am wondering if there is a way to add more fiber? Thank you for sharing just how easy they are to make!

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hello Irene, I've tried adding some whole-wheat flour but unfortunately they didn't rise well and even almost doubling the cooking time the flout still tasted raw.

[@barryrowe657]

Another great Video Mr. Paul. Thank you I'll be making some this morning!!

[@barryrowe657]

Hi Mr. Paul, I made your Muffins yesterday morning as previously advised. The recipe is easy to follow and prepare, the only difference I made is used Maize Polenta instead of Semolina. The result was amazing great taste and texture. I noticed that the offcuts of the dough after being Kneaded back together kept their shape much better than the Dough that was just rolled without Kneading. I might give it a light Knead next time before rolling what do you think?

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Yes that should be fine, the original proofing temperature can affect the final rise, if you find ab extra knead works that's OK. Do please post me some photos of your bakes n my facebook page, I and my followers añways look forward to seeing them.

Hi Rosa, Hi Mark, nice to hear from you again, I hope your Festivities went as well as possible under the circumstances. This muffin recipe was about the third thing I ever made at college and I used it all my working life, they're scrumptious. I wish you both a much better year in 2021.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Thank you for your feedback Elizabeth, just what I like to hear.

[@nurswin6806]

Thank you for the lovely recipes and videos. Would this recipe come out as soft and fluffy if the dough was kneaded by hand?

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Yes, definitely, it's the proofing that makes it soft and fluffy not the kneading. The keading, by hand or machine only develops the gluten.

[@nurswin6806]

Hi. Thank you kindly for responding. I have tried many hand kneading techniques and have had varying results, from dense and stodgy to light, soft and fluffy using the same proofing method for all. Any tips on how to proof correctly or the best method of proofing will also be greatly appreciated.

[@annarossa9446]

Hi, I love your videos. I have a question, I don’t have enough bread flour that is available right now, so can I mix it with all purpose flour? Will it affect my muffins?

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Yes, absolutely you can, sometime in the bakery we had shortages of bread flour and uses the all purpose flour with great success. Let me know g¡how you get on please.

[@annarossa9446]

@@MrPaulsPantry I missed 50/50 of bread flour n all purpose flour. It turns out great!! The only change I notice is that the inner is softer than the one I did with 100% bread flour. Thank you for such an amazing recipe!

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hi Ann, at my advanced age (80) I neither have the time or the inclination to convert my recipes into the the most inaccurate measuring system there is. If you go to my website I have a facility on most recipes where you can automatically change the recipe from Metric to US customary. use this link: mr-pauls-pantry.com/english-muffins/

[@rickpoeling6831]

Right before you said you were adding the butter, you added some dry ingredient (it looked like a small amount), but didn't say what it was.. What exactly was that? The salt was in the milk and the sugar and yeast were already added to the flour. So I'm at a loss as to what you tossed into the bowl a second before you said you were adding the butter.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hi Rick, I realised I had forgotten to add the salt to the milk, so quickly added there, I thought I had edited it out sorry about that,
