Instructions

  1. Combine yeast, sugar and warm milk and let stand 10 minutes.
  2. In the bowl of your stand mixer, combine the flour and butter with the dough hook. Add the yeast-milk mixture.
  3. Knead for 5 minutes and add a little flour as necessary until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
  4. Stir in salt and knead again for 3 minutes, until obtaining a smooth dough.
  5. Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise for 1 hour in a warm place, away from drafts. The dough should at least double in volume.
  6. Cut the dough into 20 pieces and form balls. Flatten each ball in a circle, to a thickness of about 1/2 inch (1cm) and a diameter of about 3 inches (8cm).
  7. Place the muffins on parchment paper sprinkled with fine semolina. Also sprinkle the top of each muffin with fine semolina.
  8. Cover with a cloth and let rise again for 1 hour in a warm place, away from drafts.
  9. Heat the muffins on an ungreased pan or griddle at low heat for about 4 minutes per side.
