Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 cup sourdough starter mature
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp instant yeast
  • 1 Tbsp of butter and 1 Tbsp of cooking oil for cooking
  • Cornmeal for dusting

Instructions

  • Heat milk to 115F. Add the sugar and stir to dissolve. Add the butter and stir until melted. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
    Mixing milk and butter
  • Stir in the sourdough starter. Sprinkle instant yeast and stir.
    Adding sourdough starter to the batter
  • Add one cup of flour and the salt, and mix thoroughly.
    Mixing in flour
  • Add another cup of flour and mix by hand. The dough should be slightly sticky.
    Making dough
  • Turn the dough in a lightly floured work surface. Roll out 1/2" thick and cut into 3" circles. Collect the cut-offs, re-roll and cut.
    Cutting the dough
  • Transfer to a baking sheet dusted with cornmeal. Turn each miffing in cornmeal.

  • Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until the muffins double in size.

  • Preheat a skillet or a griddle to medium-low heat with a tablespoon of butter and a tablespoon of cooking oil. Cook for about about 8 minutes per side or until the muffins are cooked through. I find they cook better if you cover the pan with a lid after you flip them.

  • Remove, split and toast. Leftover muffins can be frozen for later. Just thaw them and toast before consuming.
