    Title: English Muffins
    Categories: None
    Yield: 8 Muffins

    7/8 c Vegan buttermilk; warm -OR-
    7/8 c Plant milk; warm, plus:
    1 tb Vinegar
    2 tb Vegan butter; melted
    1 ts Active dry yeast
    1 tb Sugar
    2 1/4 c Bread flour
    1 1/2 tb Vegan sour cream or
    - substitute silken tofu or
    - vegan plain yogurt
    1 ts Salt
    1/2 c Semolina flour; for dusting
    2 tb Vegetable oil

    Add the bread flour, vegan buttermilk, sour cream, and salt. Stir
    everything together with your hands or a wooden spoon until all the
    flour is wet. It will be a very sticky dough.

    Remove the dough and place it onto a lightly floured surface. Knead
    the dough extensively, using a dough scraper as necessary to keep it
    from sticking. Avoid dusting with additional flour.

    After about 15 to 20 minutes of constant kneading, your dough will
    begin to form into a messy ball that isn't nearly as sticky as when
    you started. Place the dough ball into a lightly greased bowl. Cover
    it with a lid and allow the dough to rise (or "proof") until it has
    doubled in size (approximately 1 hour).

    Punch the dough to release the gasses. Knead the dough for about a
    minute to shape it into a ball again. Divide the dough into 8 equal
    pieces--use a scale to be precise.

    Roll each piece into a ball about the size of a tennis ball. Press
    each ball onto a plate of semolina flour. Flip it over and repeat, so
    that each side (the top and the bottom--not the sides) is lightly
    covered with semolina flour.

    Allow the balls to proof for at least one more hour. They will not
    have doubled in size, but they will be a bit larger. At this point,
    preheat the oven to 450?F.

    On a large non-stick or cast iron pan, add a little vegetable oil
    over low heat. Take each piece of dough and once more, lightly dust
    the top and bottom with additional semolina flour before placing them
    on the hot pan, pressing the tops gently. Cook each side for
    approximately 5 minutes, making sure to keep the heat low enough that
    they don't burn.

    Place the English muffins in the oven for another 25 minutes, until
    they are fully cooked inside.
