English Muffins
« on: December 25, 2009, 06:45:52 am »
350g wholemeal flour
140g bread flour
1.5 tsp dry yeast
2 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1.25 cups of water (I did weigh this, but didn't write it down, sorry!) N.B. this is a regular cup, not TMX MC
25g milk powder
2 tsp salt
cornmeal/polenta for dusting with

Combine all ingredients and mix for 10 seconds on sp 4.
Knead  :: for 1:30min then turn off and leave to prove for one hour inside the TMX (with MC in).
Knead again :: for 2min then remove onto board dusted with cornmeal/polenta and roll into a log about 6cm in diameter. Slice into rounds about 2-3cm deep. Shape with your hand into a disc shape with quite flat sides. Place on baking tray (there isn't a great deal of spreading during baking) and leave for one hour.
Bake at 200 degrees for 15 mins, turning after 10 mins.

Thank you so much - this was on my project list to find a recipe and convert  :-* :-* - some extra sugar, mixed spice, cinnamon and sultantas would make a yummy fruit version!  ;) ;D

These look lovely and the method is certainly easier than my version (non-TMX)  that involves a griddle that has to be just the perfect temperature  and  numerous muffin rings  that are tricky to handle when hot - without deforming the muffin batter within.

Thanks for posting it.  I'm going to try it New Year morning.

I made these today and was thrilled with the result.  I haven't toasted one yet but have cut them all in half and frozen all but 2 of them (breakfast tomorrow).  Perfect muffins, thanks Depome - so easy to make too.

Judy thank you for bumping these. I am another one who must try them, although I think our freezer will explode if I try to stuff much more into it.

Thanks for bumping this recipe.  Certainly easier than mine.  Only concern is that they don't seem to have that lovely rough surface that soaks up the butter.   Will give them a try.
