      Trying it in the morning. BTW, 3tsp = 1 Tbsp
      Also, use a lid when browning the first side for ~5 minutes and you can skip the oven.

      I have switched to 4" cutters. The muffins shrink in the freezer.

    Fantastic job! We used to eat English muffins all the time. But when I stopped buying our bread products that changed. It also means that we haven’t had a lot of variety with our bread. I keep saying “this or that” is the next bread to learn but never getting to it. Maybe now is the time! I spent some time yesterday planning out a few days of bulk cooking in an effort to get ready for garden season. Bread will be on the list and now English muffins will be as well! Thanks for sharing.

      @heathermack. Holy Mama! Feeding 10, for your brood, would cost $10+ for store bought English Muffins PER MEAL. DIY Bagels would be even more. What a great opportunity to save money in your kitchen. And, if you could get a couple of your troops to become voluntary expert bakers..everybody helps, everybody enjoys, everybody saves!

    I compared your recipe to several others on the 'net & then made YOURS! Amazing differences in flour quantity and slight differences in salt, sugar, some even add baking powder(?). Anyway, today's results with YOUR recipe were excellent! I made some that were 3/4-1" high and some 2" high. Both are good, but the larger size needs slightly longer in the 350F oven. I'm delighted to have found your video! I'm getting to the point were I need more FREEZER space! Thank you!

  • @gardengrowngroceries
    @gardengrowngroceries 4 місяці тому +3

    Thank you for posting this video about English Muffins. We had house-made "American" Muffins, crumpets, and Yorkshire pudding at a B&B in England and must say that both were superb when compared to store-bought. My first two forays into making English muffins were too wet and more cake-like. Your proportions and method yield a more authentic muffin as American know them. Many thanks.

    I made these last week and wasn’t sure I loved the texture of muffins so instead of making the whole recipe into muffins I made one loaf of bread with remaining dough……absolutely amazing. I am right now making just bread. My husband loves the toast so much. I would love to print the recipe with directions but there are no directions. I’m sure I can figure it out after today but I’d love to print so I can share this. So amazing and I did use bread flour!

    I've been making more homemade things lately. If I can, I try and cook more from scratch. I've been making my bread at home, i no longer buy store bought. I've been making yeast bread, so this is basically the same recipe with small differences. The store bought muffins taste awful, especially with actual farm eggs.
    I will definitely be making these. Thank you so much!

    I’m back for a third comment…. Used a 3” cutter, froze some muffins for the past few days and they really shrunk in height and width! Taste is delicious though. Next time (soon) I’ll use 4” cutter and have dough about an inch thick vs half-inch. Recipe is so good!

    I wrote a positive comment but don’t see it….. I love these muffins! Yes, they seemed to shrink a little in freezer. Better to cut when dough is about 1” thick. Might have to bake an extra minute or two when they’re thick….

    @nikkijohnson2832 6 місяців тому

    Bre, these are so delicious.... I made Sausage/Egg McMuffins at home and my husband says they are better than Mickey's! Next is Eggs Benedict and sure to be good!
    My question is: have you tried cooking them in a non-stick fry pan (corn meal on bottom), low heat with a COVER for 8 mins on each side? One UA-cam lady in Canada used this method and no need for 350F oven.
    Also, have you made them when dough was at least an inch high? Might have to add the oven step there. I'm only unhappy that they shrink when in the freezer -- doesn't affect the taste though.

    The "argument" for preferring recipes using gram vs oz measurements is nonsense. It is like claining that recipes written in French are better than the same recipe accurately translated to English. If any recipe is converted accurately, both are equal. Ms Ellis should simply say that she is more comfortable with one of two equally accurate methods of measurement, while many others are equally as comfortable with the other.
