English Muffins from Bravetart

From the book Bravetart, we tried out homemade English muffins! The book provides a lot of recipes with a history of the item being made. English muffins were popular a long time ago when a baker would make them and then take to the streets selling his wares door to door. Once ovens became more common, people made their own and the muffin man went out of business. Nowadays, most Americans buy their English muffins at the grocery store.

This particular recipe is interesting because there's no kneading and no oven either! They are cooked on the griddle and turned out really well for us.
