English muffins are so easy, I had no idea. We start with a yeast dough that is soft and soupy, let this rise until the dough collapses on itself, add another 2 cups flour and 3 T. soft butter, knead the dough a little, cut with muffin rings "or" use empty and clean cans cut into thirds.

You let the dough rise in the rings and bake on a hot griddle until golden brown on both sides. See less

How to make it
- Dissolve 2 Tablespoons water and yeast for 3 minutes. Combine water, milk, sugar, salt and yeast together, gradually beat in 2 cups flour. Cover with cloth. Let rise in warm area, 85 degrees F., for about 1 1/2 hours or until dough collapses back into the bowl. (The oven with oven light on would be the perfect place to let the dough rise.)
- Beat in butter. Knead in remaining flour. Press dough to a thickness of 1/2" and cut out with muffin rings. Let stand on lightly greased baking sheet (or silicon mat) until dough has doubled in size. Transfer muffins onto a fairly hot, well buttered griddle. Remove muffin rings. Cook until light brown. Turn once. Cool on rack. Serve with butter and marmalade.
