Bread Maker English Muffins are a delightful and easy way to enjoy homemade breakfast treats. With the help of a bread maker, you can whip up soft, warm muffins that are perfect for toasting and slathering with your favorite spreads.
When it comes to ingredients, feel free to substitute any non-dairy milk for the milk if you have lactose intolerance. Unsalted butter works wonderfully, but using olive oil can also give a nice flavor. Just keep in mind that allergies to wheat or gluten may require you to look for alternatives like gluten-free flour.

Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 3 tablespoons butter

- Once the dough is ready, cut it into 3 pieces.
- Sprinkle cornmeal on a flat surface and roll out each piece of dough to 1/4 inch thickness, turning the dough over to coat both sides with cornmeal as you roll.
- Use a round cutter to cut out 3-inch circles from the rolled dough.
