Best Ever English Muffins

[@thomasstambaugh5181]

I can't wait to try this. One difference that I've learned from baking bread with high-hydration dough is to keep the 3" ring and your hands wet with cold water rather than adding more flour. Even the slackest dough releases immediately, and you haven't added any extra flour to reduce the hydration of the finished product (and therefore reduce the hole size). I'm looking forward to home-cooked English muffins over the weekend.

[@MrDrivingFaster]

Or use oil instead of water

[@eviep2]

I just made this recipe this morning and allowed it to rise about two hours. It was absolutely the best English muffin ever. Just can't compare with store bought. I used a large cast iron pan over very low heat. I also cut the parchment paper into pieces so that I rested each muffin individually in its piece of paper. That made it extra easy to carry each muffin to the pan without disturbing them and placing them onto the pan while removing the piece of parchment paper from the top.

[@sattlej]

I fried them paper side down for a minute and then flipped them over, That made it very easy to remove the paper without changing the shape of the muffins.

[@jakepatrick4707]

I made them just this morning and they came out beautifully! I didn’t let them rise overnight. Just put them in a slightly warmed oven. Did the trick!!

[@nolimitzful]

I’ve just finished following this recipe and the outcome was a success! Was a bit concerned at first as the dough was very sticky but added a touch of flour as I laid it out to cut. Trust the process as you’ll end up with soft fluffy English muffins ❤

[@thomasstambaugh5181]

I just made this and it's definitely a winner -- the results were delicious and just as described. My family enjoyed these with plain butter, not toasted, and we loved them. I let the dough retard overnight in the refrigerator, and the results were marvelous. The only flavor element I'll adjust next time is a matter of personal taste -- we'll increase the salt to 1 1/2 tsp or even 2 tsp. Here are a few notes from my first time working through this: 1. My biggest challenge was getting the muffins to release from the parchment paper just before cooking. The dough is REALLY slack and sticky, and mine stuck to the parchment paper like glue. Next time, I'm going to use lots more corn meal on the parchment paper before transferring the dough. The ones I had the easiest time with had lots of cornmeal under them 2. Use lots of flour on the work surface when initially spreading out the dough for cutting. I didn't use enough, and I think that contributed to my challenges getting the muffins to release from the parchment paper -- I think more flour before cutting would make the disks dryer on the bottom and therefore less likely to stick. 3. Go slow on the oil used in the bowl for the first rise and retard. I put in too much, and my resulting dough had more oil than was optimal. This contributed to the overall stickiness. 4. Use a BIG bowl when retarding overnight in the refrigerator. My dough got at least four times larger, maybe more. I was afraid it had over-risen, but it was fine. Still, be sure to choose a bowl with lots of room. If you have a cover (rather than plastic wrap), then oil the bottom side of the cover just in case. 5. As I expected, I had good results from keeping a smallish bowl of cold water at my prep and cooking stations. I dipped my fingers in cold water before handling the dough, I dipped the cutter in cold water before using it, and I kept the spatula blade in cold water before using it to transfer the muffins. Aside from the handling, the cooking was exactly as described in the video. I used a 12" cast iron skillet with lots of cornmeal on the bottom, and we have an electric stove with a flat glass cooktop. I put the burner on "3" and let the skillet warm while the muffins did their final 30 minute rise. I did four at a time, covered as per the video. Mine were perfectly cooked at the 5 minute mark on each side. I empty the skillet and replace the cornmeal after each batch. I used a "fish flipper" spatula during cooking with excellent results. I got 11 muffins -- next time I'll make the dough a little thinner before cutting. It looks to me as though this recipe will make a dozen perfect English Muffins.

[@hotgothmom]

this is so sad lol, such a waste to type all of this out to justify your waste of time & ingredients for this lazy pathetic use of a recipe haha

[@gerrybrendayoutubful]

I found it easier to transfer them into the frying pan by cutting the parchment paper around each muffin , I set them in the pan parchment paper and all, the parchment paper can also be used to flip them easier, they turned out great, thank you.

[@islandgal500]

Small town here only has one tiny store. Crumpets (English muffins) are only sometimes available and only in the freezer section because they can't sell them before they go stale. The store is going to notice a big difference in their sales from me because now you've taught me how simple these are to make for myself. As it is, I have fruit trees, a vegetable garden, and now no need to buy their muffins, lemon curd, bagels, puff pastry, sprinkles, and everything else you have shown us how to do for ourselves. I can't thank you enough for your wonderful recipes that are much better than store bought.

[@ceemartin5624]

Crumpets and English Muffins are two separate things. Crumpets have little holes in them, so when you toast them and then put butter and honey, they seep into the holes and is delicious.

[@islandgal500]

@@ceemartin5624 I believe you, but have found the terms interchangeable here and can be slightly different (bigger holes or smaller) depending on the company that makes them. They both have only that slight perforated separation that you need to carefully tear apart since they are not cut through. Toasted and smothered with butter and jam they all taste great.

[@ceemartin5624]

@@islandgal500 Crumpets are more 'gooey' inside until you toast them, but muffins aren't. The texture is totally different imo.

[@suer6103]

​@@islandgal500I don't know where you live but I'm in Canada & the two aren't interchangeable with their names. Crumpets are not split. They don't have perforations & you can see the holes in them in the package bc their holes are on the outside. English muffins also don't have perforations, they just seem to have a halfway mark where you put the fork in for splitting them. They are smooth on the outside & after splitting, then you can see the dips & rises, not exactly holes, like crumpets. Definitely two different things.

[@foechicken8023]

I've made these before. I love making yeast breads. My favorite is jalapeno cheese bread. That is also my family's favorite. When I start my yeast I sometimes make a 'slurry'. It was a technique I picked up from a baker. She would mix equal parts of warm water to flour and then add her yeast. After abput 20 minutes she would have a bubbly bowl of flour mix. Usually when I make bread I just add all the ingredients together. I have never had inactive yeast. I buy yeast a pound at a time and keep it in the freezer. Great video though.

[@peterbills4129]

I've just made this recipe for the first time, and it's great in terms of taste and texture. Lots of nooks and crannies just like Thomas' or Bays. Working with the dough after turning it out was VERY difficult. I'd suggest dusting the top of the dough, which becomes the bottom once turned out from the bowel, with generous amounts of flour and corn meal. Very sticky dough.

[@gerriebell2128]

Thank you for the heads up. I did what you suggested and it made a huge difference. I have a proof setting on my oven and so this dough rose a huge amount and stuck to the shower cap cover I used. Next time I will oil it. I used a nearly 4 inch cutter so I only got 7 muffins… but that’s ok they will make good sandwiches. I did the math and this dough is 90% hydration. Other recipes are 50-60. But I bet they will be very good!

I love English muffins, and with real butter and strawberry preserves and a lovely cup of tea . . 😋 yummy heavenly breakfast.

[@calvinsweet3400]

Strawberry preserves are the best! He should show us how to make that

[@laurabalbontin-galiana3251]

What about how to do nice scones and cream?!

[@marthaolsen-yz8vg]

I love your recipe. The English Muffins turned out great. I thought it was a lot of work to make them. So easy. Thank you so much.

[@ucalgaryibd5457]

This was on my grocery list so now I’m going to attempt this...

[@thebrollys8387]

John you are my guy in baking, I learn a lot from you

[@AmChan18]

Thanks John! 💕 Love watching everything you make, I made your cinnamon rolls last week, looked awesome and came out delicious too!

[@mishamellow3528]

Beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing. My husband and I are trying to be a scratch kitchen and I love English muffins but I don't want to buy from the store with all the preservatives that are in that. I am going to try these and I know it'll take me a few tries but once I get it down these are going to be apart of my make ahead of time breakfast sandwiches I plan to make for while I'm in post-partum recovery ❤❤ you made a pregnant mama's day. Thank you for being such a blessing again and sharing your recipe

You say let sit over night? Where? The refrigerator? Then you say in the warming oven? How long? Temp? 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Time stamp 2:34 overnight in the fridge

[@loristenholm2575]

I did mine in the refrigerator.. after making put it straight in.. Next morning I got it out put it in the stove proofing setting They were amazing! Today I am making them and baking right away.

[@SilentReader2]

Hi! These came out so perfect!! I did use half the amount of sugar and only 3/4 tsp salt. So very soft and perfect in every way. I am saving this recipe! Never will I buy them from the grocery store.

“Loose and slack” That’s a terrific coupling of adjectives, as it can define so many situations. Feel free to leave some examples...

[@VirginiaMarie77]

After setting off the fire alarm with my first 4 attempts at your delicious recipe, I finally got past that problem by spraying my stainless steel frying pan with a coating of olive oil cooking spray. Between that and getting the heat of the pan just right, I can now enjoy this wonderful recipe of yours, without a kitchen filled with smoke. lol p.s. My dog begs me for these.

[@wmluna381]

Wow. That's...a lot.

[@u9911]

me: I'm going to start the diet john: NO

[@yananeilson3896]

I have tried many of your recipes and everything I made tastes amazing, your a great baker and I am so happy you share your recipes with us ❤

My dough was too runny 😢

[@clairewhitney2390]

forget about using a cookie cutter. I gently pulled off dough, kind of made it round, plopped it in the pan and came out great

[@Water_Rat]

If your dough is too runny it could have something to do with how much liquid your flour can hold. It varies from flour to flour due to its protein content. The higher the protein content the more liquid it can absorb. Perhaps try decreasing the amount of milk by increments of 5 or 10 percent until you arrive at the right dough consistency.

[@wmf831]

Oh, I love that you are using a cloth and not a cling film! Will definitely try this recipe!

[@simonegovias4653]
