Instructions

  1. In a large bowl whisk together the flours, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and yeast to combine.
  2. In a small saucepan heat the milk and butter just until the butter has melted. Let the mixture cool until just warm, no hotter than 125°F.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the milk and butter with the egg and honey. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until combined. Increase speed to medium and knead for 1 minute. The dough will be sticky and wet but should form a cohesive ball.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and roll out to 3/4-inch thickness. Use a 3 1/2-inch round cutter to cut out English muffin shapes, re-rerolling the dough as needed. Place the dough rounds on a cornmeal dusted baking sheet. Cover with a towel and let rise for 20 to 30 minutes, or until puffy.
  5. Meanwhile preheat the oven to 325°F.
  6. Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and cook the muffins for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until crispy and brown. Return the browned muffins to the baking sheet and finish baking in the oven for 15 minutes.
  7. Cut in half, toast if desired, and butter the English muffins before serving. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
