Homemade English Muffins

September 29th, 2010

At brunch this past weekend, I ordered my usual Eggs Benedict, but noticed something new on the menu: it came with a homemade English Muffin.   I wasn’t sure if I’d even notice the difference, since it would be smothered in runny egg yolks, creamy sauce and a slab of ham.   But after my first bite, I vowed never to buy another package of store-bought English Muffins again.   Yesterday I made my own batch (from this recipe) and with only a handful of ingredients, they came out fluffy, chewy and filled with nooks and crannies.

    That falls under my category of “wow, it would have never occurred to me that I could make that”… like making homemade marshmallows. Sounds yummy!

    I just made these last weekend and even impressed myself at how they came out! They looked just like the store bought kind, but were even better because I knew exactly what was going into them and didn’t have to worry about any preservatives, etc. Great recipe suggestion, Emily! Thanks!
