Perfect English Muffin Bread

[@JVIOLAAC]

I chose your recipe because I love the “nooks and crannies “ I see in your bread.

[@loriyoung1565]

Late night baking! Mine are rising right now - first try and I'm so excited!!! 😄 17:57

[@LINKYART]

This bread is amazing! I made it today and the whole family LOVES it! Thanks 🙏

[@daniellekatrina]

This bread is DELICIOUS! Super easy too! I made 2 loaves this morning and just made another 2 for the neighbors! Thanks for the recipe ☺️

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

Thanks for letting me know! I am so glad you liked it!

[@peggyraiees-dana1155]

Just took mine out of the oven and they are cooling. Can't wait to taste ! While they were rising, I had a problem come up. They were risen almost to the edge of my loaf pans, then they caved in before going into the preheated oven. They are smaller/shorter loaves then expected, but the taste is fantastic ! Didn't toast for my first bite, but would really taste good toasted. So much better then having like a bread toast.... Thank you for sharing !

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

Try adding a tablespoon of vital wheat gluten (available on amazon) to the flour. Your flour might be a little low on protein - it can vary from season to season and brand to brand AND part of the world to part of the world. :)

Excellent recipe and excellent video. The video was very helpful. The bread is delicious!

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

So glad you like it!

[@craftnique-Hermy]

This is delicious! Super easy to make. I’m making my third batch today! No more store bought English muffins in this family! I slice the second loaf and put parchment paper in between each slice and freeze. Take out what we need and toast!

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

That's how I freeze it, too. :)

Hello from New Hampshire in March 2023! We are in the middle of a major snow storm and I was in the mood to bake. This is a great recipe! I wish I had sprayed my Kitchen Aid mixing bowl and dough hook. Next time. Using the doug hook worked out fine. Did not over tax my standard artisan model, but mine was mfg in 1977 and its a workhorse! Dough rose to the to of the top of the pan nicely. I set the pans on a grow mat ( 70F ). Can't wait to try it with a cup of tea! Thanks for sharing this recipe. ~ Diane

[@cathys949]

I have an old Kitchenaid too, made by Hobart. It will last until the Second Coming!

[@ljolin5764]

This is the 3rd recipe I've used for English Toasting Bread and it is by far, THE BEST. The other recipes added the yeast into the dry ingredients, which works, but not as well as letting it develop on its own. Also, this dough is much "gloopier' than the others and as Marye says, that is what makes the wonderful nooks and crannies. I had to use closer to 3 C of warm milk to keep the gloop ratio after I added all 4 1/2 C of flour to the mix. Still came out PERFECTLY delicious. I want to try Marye's recipe for Amish Milk bread next!

[@carvercook54]

This is by far the best English muffin bread I’ve made. Thanks for the detailed instructions.

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

so glad you like it!

[@sandyevans7454]

Such excellent information in this video. Seeing what gloopy looks like and the tip about buttering the spatula and the tip about corn meal….all very helpful! I’ll use this recipe to go along with Christmas Jam for presents this year.

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

Thanks Sandy!

[@joelapierre3952]

Great job on the video. I made this and it turned out perfect. I'm sharing the recipe with friends, and the the bread with no one!

[@vh2337]

I've got them in the oven right now! I tried making English muffins a few weeks ago and it wasn't good. Hopefully these loaves will turn out just fine. I'm glad you addressed the over rising of the bread, I've had a few of those myself in the past and didn't know what it was from so thanks for the info.

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

[@boothgoodies6348]

Listen, I can’t bake for nothing. I even mess up frozen cookie dough. But this recipe... I nailed it. Twice! Just a few ingredients, not a lot of time, and it’s supposed to be gloopy. I can’t believe I actually made bread!

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

That's awesome!

I think jalapeno honey would have been a great addition.

[@mike9119]

Very nice, looks like you're using corn flour not corn meal on the video. I do remember seeing in the store corn meal. Most dry yeast now days you just put it in with the flour and go, no need to proof it anymore unless it's yeast in cubes. Look forward to making the bread instead of round shaped.

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

I always like to proof my yeast - if it happens to be old I'd like to know before I'm trying to get it to rise but many people do skip this step. I am using corn meal.

[@jessicamorgan2928]

I just made this today. I couldn't get it to rise quite all the way but decided to bake it any way. Tastes delicious, just doesn't have all the nooks and cranies.

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

Jessica - your yeast may have been a little old or there may have been a bit too much flour. Im glad the taste was there, though!

You can use semolina flour, or corn meal, or even grits or cream of wheat inside the pan.

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

[@ShakeMyWay]

Nice! This is a good recipe! The only thing I'd say is that looks like cornstarch, not cornmeal. Cornmeal is very rough cut.

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

But I promise this is indeed cornmeal. I was there.

[@RainbowRiver]

I only have one loaf pan. Would it be better to halve the recipe or can I let the dough sit in the bowl while the first one bakes?

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

You can le tthe dough sit in the bowl but put it in the fridge until about 10 minutes before you're going to put it in the loaf pan.

Yes - just add the yeast in with the flour as directed on the yeast package.

[@suzannest-laurentdvorak459]

That’s cornmeal flour, not corn meal?

[@MaryeAudet-RestlessChipotle]

cornmeal is cornmeal flour as far as I know.

You want something as close to American all-purpose flour as you can get. White Flour/Type 550 is the closest European version.
