English Muffins - sourdough!

 Sourdough English muffins - giving credit where credit is due, @savtwatson posted these to tiktok and I made them at my home. So this is my adapted version! 

In addition to the ingredients you’ll need: a cookie sheet, parchment paper, corn meal for dusting, a cookie cutter or glass, rolling pin, and hot cast iron skillet. 

Overnight sponge:

1/2 cup of starter

1 cup of whole milk 

2 cups AP flour

^^mix thoroughly and cover overnight.


Next morning add:

1/2 cup AP flour

1 tbsp sugar

1.5 tsp salt

1/2 tsp baking powder 

Note: I needed more flour for dusting AND I needed to add a few more tablespoons to get it to set up to my comfort level)


Knead until smooth. Roll out fairly thin. Cut to desired size - note they will shrink a bit when they cook(and puff up) also, so keep that in mind.

Add parchment to a cookie sheet - sprinkle corn meal over the parchment and put your rounds onto the sheet. Sprinkle more corn meal on top, cover with a towel for at least 45 minutes.


Preheat your skillet and set to medium high - mine was at a 6 of 10 on my propane stove.  Gently place your rounds on there, cook several minutes on each side- cool, and enjoy!


These taste amazing and so easy and affordable!
