English Muffins

Six softly shaped oven-baked milk-and-butter muffins raised with baking powder.

Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Heat a conventional oven to 160°C and lightly butter a flat tin baking tray with a little separate butter. Put the half pound of sifted flour on a clean work surface and make a well. Pour in the half pint of cold milk, then add the two ounces of softened butter, tablespoon of baking powder and saltspoon of salt.

  2. Step 2

    Bring the ingredients together and work the soft mixture for five minutes, using a dough scraper to fold and turn it without adding extra flour or milk. Divide it into six equal portions. With the scraper, shape each into a rounded mound and gently flatten the top to make a small cake.

  3. Step 3

    Arrange the six cakes on the lightly buttered tray. Bake for about twenty minutes as a guide, continuing as needed until risen and baked through, with firm centres and no wet flour batter on a skewer. Remove and serve warm.
