Classic English Muffins
  1. Scald the milk by bringing it to just below boiling temperature and holding it there for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

  2. Whisk in the butter and honey until combined.

  3. Proof the yeast by mixing it with 2 tablespoons of the warm milk mixture and letting it sit for a few minutes.

  4. In a stand mixer with the dough hook, combine the bread flour, whole wheat flour, and salt.

  5. Add the milk mixture and proofed yeast to the dry ingredients and mix until a very wet dough forms.

  6. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise for 2-3 hours until doubled in size.

  7. Punch down the dough and transfer it to a parchment-lined baking sheet dusted with cornmeal.

  8. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

  9. Cut out the muffins using a 3 ½-inch round cutter and cook them on a preheated griddle or skillet over low heat for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown.

  10. Fork open the muffins to expose the nooks and crannies.
