Instructions

  1. Warm the milk to 110-115ºF. Add the honey and yeast. Whisk lightly and allow the mixture to sit for 3-4 minutes.
  2. To the bowl of a stand mixer, add the sourdough discard, egg and butter. Add the egg mixture and two cups of flour. Mix well.
  3. Then add the remaining two cups of flour and the salt. Use the dough hook to mix and knead the dough for 5-7 minutes on low speed. (If you don't have a stand mixer, knead by hand for the same amount of time.)
  4. Spray a bowl with cooking spray. Place the dough in the bowl, then turn once to ensure the top of the dough is lightly oiled. Cover and allow the dough to rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  5. After the dough has doubled, punch it down in the center. Roll the dough on a lightly floured work surface to about 3/4" thick. Use a 3" biscuit cutter to cut circles. You'll end up with about 18 cut circles. Re-roll any scraps as needed.
  6. Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper and sprinkle about 1/4 cup the cornmeal over the paper. Place the discs of dough on the paper with 2 inches of space between them. Dust the tops with a little more cornmeal. Set the English muffins aside to ride in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  7. Heat a cast iron skillet (or non-stick skillet) over medium low heat. Sprinkle a little cornmeal on the pan. Place the dough discs in the hot skillet and cover the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes. The exact timing will depend on your skillet/stovetop and the size of the English muffins. The internal temperature of the muffins should be 190ºF and they should be golden brown on each side.
  8. Once the English muffins are cool, split in half with a fork or serrated knife. Toast them and serve with butter and jam.
