{{ :recipes:englishmuffinbread-17.jpg?direct&200|}} ====== English Muffin Bread - ATK ====== /* Description */ We’ve taken our favorite English muffin recipe and translated it into a simple bread recipe that toasts and tastes like English muffins but with half the work. We prefer bread flour in this recipe for its stronger gluten proteins, which give this loaf a chewy yet light consistency. Bread flour also has the ability to absorb more water than AP flour, an important aspect since this is a fairly wet and sticky batter/dough. The resulting crumb has a solid structure and consistent holes. {(rater>id=100|name=English Muffin Bread|type=rate|headline=off)} |**Preheat:** 375°|**Yield:** 2 loaves|| |**Prep:** 0:20|**Rise:** 1:00|**Cook:** 0:30| ====== Ingredients ====== * 5 cups unbleached bread flour* * 4 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast * 1 tablespoon sugar * 2 teaspoons salt * 1 teaspoon baking soda * 3 cups whole milk, heated to 120 degrees * Cornmeal, for pans ====== Directions ====== - Place flour, yeast, sugar, salt, and baking soda into a large mixing bowl. Whisk well to combine. Make a slight well in the center and add the warm milk into it. Stir with a wooden spoon until combined and dough starts pulling away from the sides of the bowl. - Cover the bowl with plastic wrap that's been lightly sprayed with vegetable oil. Let sit in a warm place to rise for 30 minutes. - Spray two 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch loaf pans with cooking spray and dust with cornmeal. Give dough a stir with a rubber spatula to knock it down a bit. Divide the dough as evenly as possible between the two loaf pans. The batter will be sticky and should fill the pans about 2/3 of the way. Use a rubber spatula to gently coax the batter into the corners. Cover the pans with greased plastic wrap. Let sit to rise for 30 minutes. The dough should rise near to the top of the pan. - Bake in a 375 degree oven, in the middle rack for 30 minutes, rotating halfway through. The internal temperature of the finished loaf should be 200 degrees when done. ====== Notes ====== http://www.playingwithflour.com/2013/11/english-muffin-loaf-bread-its-so-easy.html /* Nutrition block - remove the slash-asterisk and asterisk-slash from just above and below the following block */ /* ====== Nutrition ====== |Calories (kcal): ||Fat Calories (kcal): |Cholesterol (mg): | |Fat (g): |Saturated Fat (g): |Mono Fat (g): |Poly Fat (g): | |Protein (g): |Carbohydrates (g): |Sodium (mg): |Fiber (g): | */ {{tag>Recipes Bread/Yeast European/English AmericasTestKitchen/CooksCountry}} /* Recipe Tags - Copy and paste tags from the list below to the tag list in the above line, replacing the "TagsNeeded" tag and separated by spaces. */ /* ---Recipe Types--- Appetizer Beverage Beverage/Cocktail Bread European/English AmericasTestKitchen/CooksCountry Bread/Muffin Bread/Quickbread Brines-Marinades-Rubs Breakfast Casserole Canning-Freezing Condiment CrockPot Dessert/Bar-Brownie Dessert/Cake Dessert/Cake/Frosting Dessert/Candy-Chocolate Dessert/Crisp-Buckle Dessert/Cookie Dessert/Custard-Curd Dessert/IceCream Dessert/IceCream/Topping Dessert/Pie Dip-Spread Entertaining Grilling-BBQ Holiday Kid-Friendly MainDish MainDish/Beef MainDish/Poultry MainDish/Pork MainDish/Seafood Pasta Pizza Roast Salad Salad/Dressing Sandwich Seasoning Side Snack Soup Stew-Braise Stir-Fry Vegetarian ---Recipe Cuisines--- American American/Cajun-Creole American/Southern American/TexMex Asian Asian/Chinese Asian/Indian Asian/Japanese Asian/Korean Asian/Thai Asian/Vietnamese European European/Belgian European/Czech European/Dutch European/English AmericasTestKitchen/CooksCountry European/French European/German European/Greek European/Polish European/Irish European/Italian European/Portuguese European/Russian European/Scandinavian European/Spanish European/Swiss Latin Latin/Brazilian Latin/Mexican MiddleEastern MiddleEastern/Ethiopian MiddleEastern/Jewish MiddleEastern/Lebanese ---Recipe Sources--- 365Recipes 365Recipes/Grilling 365Recipes/Chicken 365Recipes/Pasta AmericasTestKitchen AmericasTestKitchen/CooksCountry AmericasTestKitchen/CooksIllustrated BetterHomesGarden Bon Appetit Chowhound FineCooking FoodWine GoodEats Gourmet HDawson AMarcos DMarcos JMarcos KMarcos JPhalen ---Recipe Ratings--- 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1★ No★ ---Recipe Alerts--- RecipeNeeded RecipeIncomplete RecipeWrong RecipeFails TagsNeeded */ ~~DISCUSSION~~
