A Taste That Goes Beyond Store-Bought:

Homemade English Muffins offer a taste and texture that store-bought versions can’t match. The crispy outside and soft, airy inside makes them the perfect base for any breakfast sandwich. The slight sweetness from raw honey, the richness of butter, and the creaminess of scalded milk elevate these muffins to a new level of deliciousness.

Why These Ingredients?

Scalded Milk: Scalding the milk is crucial in creating the perfect English muffin. Heating the milk to just below boiling helps to dissolve the sugar and ensures the dough has the right consistency. Scalded milk also improves the texture of the muffins, making them softer and more tender. Additionally, it enhances the flavor, giving the muffins a subtle richness that makes each bite more satisfying.
Butter: Butter adds a rich, creamy butter bursting flavor to the muffins, contributing to their tender crumb and delicious taste. It provides the necessary fat that helps create a soft, fluffy texture. When you toast the muffins, the butter in the dough helps them crisp up beautifully, adding a delightful contrast to the smooth interior filled with those beloved nooks and crannies.
Raw Honey: Incorporating honey into the dough adds a natural sweetness that perfectly balances the savory elements of your breakfast sandwich. Honey not only enhances the flavor but also helps to keep the muffins moist. Its natural sugars caramelize when toasted, adding a depth of flavor that’s both rich and complex.

Easy to Make and Freeze

One of the best things about homemade English muffins is their simplicity. The recipe is straightforward and doesn’t require any special equipment. Once you’ve made a batch, they freeze beautifully, making it easy to have homemade muffins ready whenever needed. Just pop a few in the toaster or under the broiler in the oven straight from the freezer, and you have fresh, warm English Muffins in minutes.
