If you need a swap, here are our favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/whole-milk-substitutes-for-cooking-baking\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/whole-milk-substitutes-for-cooking-baking\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">milk substitutes for baking<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> Adding a bit of butter to the English muffin recipe adds richness for superior taste and texture. Butter also helps create a wonderfully crisp and golden exterior on the English muffins.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar:<\/strong> Sugar lightly sweetens the dough and provides necessary food for the yeast, which aids in the fermentation process.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Salt:<\/strong> One of the common <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-fix-the-most-common-bread-baking-mistakes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-fix-the-most-common-bread-baking-mistakes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mistakes of bread baking<\/a> is forgetting to add salt (or not adding enough salt). Salt is important because it enhances the flavor of the dough and also tightens the gluten structure to give your dough strength and stability.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Yeast:<\/strong> English muffins are a yeasted bread, meaning you&#8217;ll need a bit of active dry or instant yeast in order for them to rise. Here are our top tips for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-use-yeast\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-use-yeast\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">how to use yeast<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Water:<\/strong> Water activates the yeast. Make sure to use an instant-read thermometer as you warm the water to the yeast manufacturer&#8217;s recommended temperature for the best rise.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Flour:<\/strong> While English muffins can be made entirely with all-purpose flour or as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/whole-wheat-english-muffins\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/whole-wheat-english-muffins\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">whole wheat English muffins<\/a>, this English muffin recipe uses a combination of both flours. The regular all-purpose flour brings softness and lightness to the English muffins, while the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/whole-wheat-flour-recipes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/whole-wheat-flour-recipes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">whole wheat flour<\/a> brings whole-grain goodness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seeds:<\/strong> This English muffins recipe tosses in a combination of sesame and poppy seeds for added texture and subtle crunch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cornmeal:<\/strong> Cornmeal is used for English muffin recipes to help prevent the muffins from sticking to the skillet when they&#8217;re cooked. If you don&#8217;t have cornmeal, semolina flour may also be used.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Make the dough<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2045065\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/English-Muffin_TOHVS24_5565_MR_08_28_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Scald milk in a saucepan; add butter, sugar and salt.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Scald milk in a saucepan, then add the butter, sugar and salt.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2045066\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/English-Muffin_TOHVS24_5565_MR_08_28_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Stir until butter melts; cool to lukewarm.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Stir until the butter melts, then cool to a lukewarm temperature.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2045067\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/English-Muffin_TOHVS24_5565_MR_08_28_3.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water;\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a separate bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water (otherwise known as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-proof-yeast\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-proof-yeast\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">proofing yeast<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2045068\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/English-Muffin_TOHVS24_5565_MR_08_28_4.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Stir in all-purpose flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour until smooth.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Add the yeast to the milk mixture, then stir in the all-purpose flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour until smooth.

Add the yeast to the milk mixture, then stir in the all-purpose flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour until smooth. Add the sesame seeds, poppy seeds and enough remaining whole wheat flour to make a soft dough. Editor's Tip: Scalding milk refers to the process of heating milk to a temperature just below boiling and then cooling to room temperature. Milk boils at around 212\u00b0F, so for scalding, you'll typically aim for a temperature around 180\u00b0 and 185\u00b0. For best results, use an instant-read thermometer to get an accurate temperature.","image":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/English-Muffin_TOHVS24_5565_MR_08_28_1.jpg?fit=700,1024"},{"@type":"HowToStep","name":"Knead and rise","text":"Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes.

Editor's Tip: Kneading your bread dough properly is a great practice for any home baker to know. It will give you the texture you're aiming for. You may also knead dough with a stand mixer, if desired.","image":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/English-Muffin_TOHVS24_5565_MR_08_28_5.jpg?fit=700,1024"},{"@type":"HowToStep","name":"Cut into circles","text":"Punch the dough down, then roll to a 1\/3-inch thickness on a cornmeal-covered surface. Cut into circles using a 3-1\/2-inch or 4-inch cutter. Cover the English muffin cutouts with a towel and let them rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes. Editor's Tip: Leave 1 to 2 inches of space between the English muffins while they complete their final rise to ensure they do not stick together. New to bread making? Here's why bread dough rises.","image":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/English-Muffin_TOHVS24_5565_MR_08_28_7.jpg?fit=700,1024"},{"@type":"HowToStep","name":"Cook the English muffins","text":"To cook, place the English muffins, cornmeal side down, in a greased skillet.

Editor's Tip: You'll have to work in batches of three to four English muffins at a time if you're cooking them in a standard-size skillet. Alternatively, a large cast-iron or Blackstone Griddle may also be used to cook the English muffins in larger batches.","image":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/English-Muffin_TOHVS24_5565_MR_08_28_9.jpg?fit=700,1024"},{"@type":"HowToStep","name":"Split, toast and serve","text":"Cool the English muffins on wire racks.
