Legendary English Muffin Recipe
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, sugar, and yeast.

  2. In a separate small bowl, combine the melted butter and warm water. Slowly pour into the dry ingredients and mix until a shaggy dough forms.

  3. Cover and rest the dough at room temperature for 24 hours to develop flavor and texture.

  4. After 24 hours, lightly flour a work surface, divide into 12 equal portions (~85 g), and shape into seam-free balls.

  5. Coat each ball in semolina flour and place on a semolina-coated tray. Cover loosely and proof 45–60 minutes.

  6. Preheat your Baking Steel Griddle on medium for 10–15 minutes to 275–300°F.

  7. Brush clarified butter generously over the surface — it should bubble lightly on contact.

  8. Cook a few muffins at a time: 5-6 minutes on the first side until golden, then flip and gently press to flatten slightly. Cook the second side to golden for about the same time.

  9. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Split, toast, and enjoy those legendary nooks & crannies.
