I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Place milk, sugar, butter, yeast and water in TM bowl and heat 37°C/5 minutes/Speed 1 to activate the yeast. Leave for about 10 minutes (go make yourself a cup of coffee or even take a quick shower!) then whisk 2 seconds/Speed 5 to froth it up.
Add the flour and salt and mix 20 seconds/Speed 3 or until the dough comes away from the sides of the bowl. Set the speed dial to the lid locked position and knead for 2 minutes. Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with oiled cling film or a clean tea towel and let rise for about 30 to 45 minutes or until doubled in size (send some emails, help a child with homework, or paint your nails!)
Punch down, then roll out to about ½ inch thick. Cut rounds with biscuit cutter, drinking glass, or empty tuna can (what a wonderful idea, Mrs Opie!) and place on a sheet of waxed paper/baking parchment sprinkled with cornmeal or polenta. Dust tops of muffins with cornmeal/polenta, cover and let rise ½ hour. (This is where I opened the Champagne on Christmas morning and I’m sure you can find something to do for 30 minutes or so!)
Heat a greased heavy-based frying pan or flat skillet. Cook the muffins for about 15 minutes in total – the first 5 minutes with the lid on (this helps them to rise and reduce the density of the muffin) – then flipping them every few minutes until cooked through. Using a simmer mat on a gas hob will allow enough heat through to get a good rise but prevent the bases burning. I used an induction hob and watched them carefully. When cooked, place on a wire rack to cool, then split and enjoy.

These were amazing, followed the recipe exactly. Way better than store bought without the preservatives.
Made these for the first time tonight. Stellar! Very easy, and a perfect result. No other recipe for English muffins that I’ve tried has even come close. Thank you Madame Thermomix! 😍
Used fresh yeast and subbed in 100gr of whole meal flour ... light, fluffy and super yum!
I'm so pleased for you, @8prilshowers ! Isn't it heartwarming when you make something important and well-loved in your Thermomix and it comes out just perfectly? Fabulous!
Happy Thermomix cooking!

Perfect English muffins!! Everyone was very impressed. I used 1/2 regular flour & 1/2 white spelt flour, turned out fabulous. I cooked them in A heavy bottom non-stick pan on an electric stove top, lowest heat & kept the top on the pan each time I flipped. Thanks!!

Made today and love them. Very easy and turned out really well! A little dark as I couldn't get the heat right but still tasted great. DH reckoned way better than store bought - can't say much better than that =D
Hello, the butter gets melted with the milk, sugar, water and yeast in step one. Thank you for spotting this omission! I have corrected the recipe. Good luck with these easy and delicious English muffins, you'll be delighted with the results. Bon appetit !
