Easy English Muffins

I direct keep ever loved English linguistic communication muffins; I love all of the nooks in addition to crannies that concur creamy butter in addition to jam or a dab of melting peanut butter. They are really slow to brand in addition to they brand wonderful breakfast sandwiches (they freeze good too!!).
two packets dry out active yeast (I job two tablespoons)
½ loving cup warm water
½ loving cup warm milk
¼ loving cup canola oil
1 egg
three tablespoons honey
two cups all purpose flour
1 whole wheat flour
1 loving cup raisins
1 teaspoon salt

Mix the flours, common salt in addition to raisins together in addition to laid aside. Whisk the egg into the mutual depression temperature milk in addition to hence add together the water, oil  and honey. Warm this mixture inward the microwave for a few seconds to direct keep the chill off (bring it to the same temperature you lot would for a babies bottle). Stir inward yeast in addition to allow it sit down for close v minutes.

Pour this mixture into a stand upwards mixer (can live done yesteryear manus also) in addition to add together the dry out ingredients. Knead this dough for close v minutes or until the dough comes away from the sides of the bowl cleanly. Cover amongst plastic roll in addition to allow it sit down inward a warm house for an hour. Dough should double inward size.

Turn dough out onto counter (I create non flour the counter) in addition to curl to ½” thickness. Cut muffins amongst a 4” cutter (or drinking glass). Place each muffin on a foursquare of wax newspaper to rise. This volition assistance you lot transfer the muffins to the frying pan. Let the muffins heighten for an hr earlier you lot laid upwards them.

The muffins are cooked on a DRY electrical frying pan (no grease) or a shape Fe skillet. The recipe does non country specifically what temperature to laid upwards them at, it but says medium depression for vii minutes each side. I direct keep industrial plant life that they laid upwards nicely at 300° on my electrical griddle. Serve warm correct from the frying pan or  cool on a wire rack in addition to hence while inward one-half in addition to toast.
NOTE: Since everyone’s frying pan in addition to stove temperatures are different, I propose you lot crusade a unmarried muffin in addition to meet how speedily it browns earlier you lot laid upwards the whole batch.
NOTE: Hold onto the edges of the wax newspaper foursquare every bit you lot gently elevator the raw muffin from the counter. Turn the muffin over in addition to gently pare of the wax newspaper in addition to gently lay the raw muffin on the griddle.
