These homemade English muffins are soft on the inside, lightly crisp on the outside, and cooked entirely on the stovetop. Using a cast-iron skillet keeps the heat steady and creates those classic nooks and crannies. Simple, comforting, and perfect for breakfast sandwiches or a toasted butter-and-jam moment.
No. 8 Lancaster Griddle
1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
2¼ teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
1 tablespoon sugar
2½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon melted butter or oil
Cornmeal (for dusting)
Activate the yeast by mixing the warm milk, yeast, and sugar together. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
In a separate bowl, stir in flour, salt, and butter. Mix until a soft dough forms. Knead lightly 2–3 minutes (or mix until smooth).
For the first rise, cover and let rise 1 hour, until doubled.
Roll the dough to about ¾-inch thick. Cut into rounds (cup or biscuit cutter) and dust both sides with cornmeal.
For the second rise, let rest 20–30 minutes.
Heat the cast iron griddle on low to medium heat. Cook muffins 5–6 minutes per side, covered, until golden and cooked through (internal temp ~200°F if checking).
Cool completely, then split with a fork if serving with butter, jam or other toppings.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Lava Cake
Deeply rich and fudgy with a warm molten center, this lava cake brings together classic chocolate decadence with a twist of nutty peanut butter. The cake hides a gooey peanut butter ganache surprise inside and is finished with a gently sweet peanut butter swirl baked into the top.
No Knead Dutch Oven Yeast Bread
We love how The Uncomplicated Chef keeps dessert elegant and simple.
Her Cherry Cornmeal Spoon Cake is exactly the kind of recipe we love, juicy cherries, a simple cornmeal batter, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream to finish it off. Perfect for a simple summer night treat.
