Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time4 minutes
Resting Time1 hour 30 minutes
Servings: 12 cakes

Ingredients

  • 1 C milk
  • 1 tsp yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 ½ C all-purpose flour

Instructions

  • Heat the milk until it is warm to the touch but not hot. Add the yeast and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. 
  • Add in the salt and eggs and mix until combined. Next, whisk in the flour using a wooden spoon. Cover the dough and let it rest for one hour. 
  • After an hour has gone by, mix the dough again and let it rest once more for 30 minutes. 
  • After 30 minutes, heat your skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease the pan with a little bit of butter. 
  • Spoon the dough out onto the pre-heated skillet, spreading out the dough on the skillet as best as possible to form english-muffin sized circles. Allow the cakes to cook for 1-2 minutes on one side, flip, and finish cooking until the cake is golden brown on each side and done in the middle. 
  • Remove from the skillet and serve fresh with butter and honey or at room temperature for up to a week.
