I have already confessed my sincere love for my bubbly 6+ year old sourdough starter that I talked about in this video: • All About Homemade Sou...
I use it in my kitchen often. Pancakes, english muffins, waffles...I have even attempted Sourdough Doughnuts: farmhouseonboone.com/farmhous...
I love the way sourdough adds a depth of flavor to baked goods that just isn't there in store bought bread products.
Plus, I have a satisfaction cooking with a starter that I made and maintained with my own two hands. I hope to pass it down as a family heirloom.
To me, it is valuable to learn how to make something in your own home that you just can't buy in the store. Artisan style.
I get really excited by things like this.
Grains have gotten an undeserved bad rep in the health food community.
Have you ever heard of phytic acid? Basically, its an antinutrient found in grains, beans and nuts that interferes with the absorption of certain nutrients. They are present on grains to keep them from spoiling.
There is a reason they are there, but there is also good evidence that our bodies weren’t meant to handle them. Proper preparation of grains eliminates most, if not all, of the phytic acid in offending foods.
But, did you know traditional cultures thrived on grains? The key difference between the way they consumed grains, and the way we do in our modern society can be summed up in two words: proper preparation.
It was necessary for folks to ferment grains for them to rise into delicious bread. Before yeast was isolated and sold in little packets, sourdough starter was a valuable commodity in homes and families, passed down for generations.
These days we’ve lost that art. And, what have we found? People can’t handle grains anymore.

But for now let's talk about the topic at hand: How to Make Sourdough English Muffins
I love Sourdough English Muffins because they taste like bread and work like bread, but take about 1/10th of the work making sourdough bread takes.
And for this busy momma, that's a recipe for a great...well..recipe.
I can whip them in no time. And my family can enjoy a healthy bread that is so much cheaper than sprouted whole grain bread from the store.
Sourdough English muffins work great for sandwiches with meat and cheese, or smothered in butter and honey for breakfast.
How to Make Sourdough English Muffins
The night before you want sourdough English muffins stir in a glass bowl:
2 cups flour
1 cup water
1/2 cup fed sourdough starter
Cover it with a towel and let it sit at room temperature for 12- 24 hours. You can get away with a longer in the cooler months and the fermentation process can take less time in the summer if your house is hot.
After it has fermented, add to the mixture:
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
Preheat your cast iron skillet on low and add a little coconut oil.
Mix the ingredients together until they are fully incorporated. You will probably have to use your hands for this. The dough will be pretty thick.
Divide the dough in 12 equal parts and drop it in your cast iron skillet.
Keep it on low for about 10 minutes so the dough has a chance to rise.
After you are happy with the amount of rising, turn the skillet up to about 3 or 4 (not quite medium) and continue to cook until they are browned slightly on the bottom.
on’t try to flip them until they come up easily from the pan. The goal is to only flip them one time.
Cook them on the other side until browned.
These English muffins have a tendency to cook on the outside before the inside is full done. So, be sure to not turn the skillet up to high. If they are browned on the outside, but still not done on the inside, throw them in a 250 to 300 degree oven for 10 minutes or so.
After they are cooked all the way through, slice them open and Enjoy!

Oh Lisa, these are so amazing!!! For under $5, I made these, pancakes, 2 sourdough breads, tortillas, and pizza crusts. You are a gem! Thank you! Everything tastes wonderful. I made these without the baking powder as you show, wow, my dough trippled and the nooks and crannys are excellent. They taste amazing. I live alone and have a feezer of great foods to pull out.
I just have to say I love your channel! I love your heart! As an older woman I lived like you when I was younger. I respect all young women who live this way. A true Proverbs 31 woman!

I just came across this video when looking up English muffin recipes and I think this is the first video I ever saw of Lisa’s all those years ago! I remember thinking… “how the heck does she do all that with a baby?” And I still ask the same question several babies later 🤣😍
I made mine this morning. I cut the recipe in half to make 6 . They were delicious!! I was so happy the came out out right the first time! 😁🍞
I recently had my baby girl and I have started a recipe box for her to give her on her 18the birthday and this definitely will be added to her box

My mother wrote to my family members and friends and had them all write out their favorite recipes for me for my 14th birthday (I've always loved cooking and baking). What a gift that was! My favorite birthday gift ever. Now I have a treasure of hand written favorites from family and friends (some of which are no longer here) and hope to gift them to my daughter as well.

Killing it with the skillet! Love how you use your sourdough and keep the recipes and cooking methods simple simple simple! Thanks for putting together this video! Stoked to use my sourdough and cast iron skillet even more
This recipe is FANTASTIC! Everything I’m looking for in a recipe... simple, nutritious, easy to commit to memory, fun for the kids to help, and incredibly delicious. Children and husband approved! Definitely a keeper. Thank you so much for sharing!
I just love your ideas and that you carry your lovely baby while you cook! Very sweet!
These came out AMAZING!! My family had me make it two days in a row and it was their first time trying sourdough! Thank you somuch for sharing this delicious and HEALTHY recipe! It's definitely a keeper in our home!
Just made these and they’re awesome! My kids are begging for more!! ❤️
Love these! My family has been devouring them!! So great to have on hand for sandwiches throughout the day. And so much tastier than store-bought. No need to buy those again! Getting in the habit of setting a batch to ferment every night.
We love you Lisa. Such a true woman, homemaker and mom. You are resourceful and good. Thank you.
Thank you for this amazingly easy and yummy recipe! I will definitely be making these regularly! As a mom of 5, I'm grateful for your channel!
These were amazing! Thank you for the instructions! This recipe will keep me actually using cast iron which haven’t been good about using until a friend shared your website and videos with me. Thank you from my whole family!
I love these. Now because of the summer heat and I'm not using my oven this is what I'm using my sourdough for. Thanks so much for the recipe
Just made sourdough this morning for my students. All I can say is thank you. Your recipe is true. This English muffin is so delicious I’m just blown away. This will be my go to for easy bread for my family and students.
I'm so happy to see like a real mom. Kids time delays all of the things that ACTUALLY happen in life. Makes me feel good to see you can do this with kids because then I can too.
I have discovered that I truly love making English muffins and using my cast iron pans more. Thank you
You are wonderful. What a great teacher!
I made these today. Only my second EVER sourdough creation. Haha! Everyone loved them!! Thanks so much for sharing. You inspire me to do more!
I made these using Bobs red mill gluten free flour mix and a brown rice sour dough starter. Turned out great! Thanks for the video!
This is probably my favorite recipe of yours! My husband gets super excited whenever he sees the second bowl with the english muffin mixture and always asks when I am making more lol
I made them this week and they are so amazing and easy!!!! I made my first starter and did this first! Love it
Ooh these are in the skillet now! They smell amazing! Cannot wait to try. Such an easy recipe and makes a lot!
Alway my go 2 go receipe staples, once sourdough starter is ready to be used, greetings from 2020 and bless you and your love ones from my family to you.
I just made these with my gluten free starter and they were delicious!!! Thank you.
OMG...I have made these a few times now. LOVE THEM! I just made your recipe but used a gluten free kefir starter! They turned out great! I think more dense but still really good! The kefir starter is just one cup kefir and 1 cup gluten free flour. Thank you so much for sharing.
My starter is ready to go! I can't wait to use it tomorrow.
Wow these came out amazing. Thank you so much. My family is going to be so pleased. 😊
I love your sourdough English muffin recipe. After three attempts I think my starter is finally right. I made a batch of your recipe and I made a batch of another type from a flour company, no names. Yours taste better and was much easier. Thank you so much for sharing this. I’m excited to try some of your other sourdough recipes. 👍🏻❤️
I made this recipe with the second week of my discard... I totally goofed it. They came out like pancakes, I don't like wasting food, so I tried them. OM goodness!😮 I couldn't stop eating them!😋 So good with butter and honey. I made other recipes, but this one was the best for me. Thank you!
it works well to do them in a canning lid for form.then they rise instead of spread
I ADORE this recipe, but the only thing that was bothering me about it was how imperfect and blobby these turned out. But problem fixed- I bought some of those silicone round egg molds and now I just scoop my batter into those on the frying pan and they turn out the perfect English muffin shape!

Just made this and they were sooo good! Thank you! I could taste a slight hint of baking soda but that will just take practice of really watching how i sprinkle it on. Just made more for tomorrow. Next are the pancakes! 🥞
I make a huge mess when I make bread and I don't have a baby attached to me, you are good.
Best sourdough English muffins!!! I can’t say enough they are delicious!! So one twist is that I brown the top and bottom them put them in the air fryer to make sure the inside is fully cooked. I also use the ice cream scooper to shape them. Thank you so much for your recipe!!!
Just made these for my family. Delicious! We are in Australia and the English muffins in the shops have decreased in flavour and our flour is so far from the original grain (hence the health problems especially inflammation and auto immune diagnosis increase). So finding you and your recipes are so important for us as we transition to fermented foods and home made. We are fortunate to live off grid in the Australian bush so am motivated by watching your videos and reading your blog. Thank you so much for sharing.
I just made them together with pancakes and waffles for freezing :). I love your recipes and style. I so enjoy watching your videos. Very inspirational. Thank you.

I made these and they came out absolutely delicious!! I made them after 10 hours and it was the perfect balance of sour for us. I didn’t use my hands because I hate the feeling on my hands lol but oh my this recipe is amazing. Thank you so much .
I'm looking forward to giving these a try! They look so good!
I made these this morning and they are delicious. Thank you! I have enjoyed all your recipes. I now always have cabbage fermenting on the counter and I make your crisp potatoes all the time. These English muffins will be another recipe I make several times a week.

I love your bread and bagel recipe so came looking for English muffins, since I love them.
thank you so much for your willingness to share your knowledge with others. I am visually impaired and your videos have been extremely helpful and inspiring for me :-) I have made several of your recipes and I love them! my husband is also enjoying them as well :-) he is a chemo patient and doesn’t enjoy a whole lot of food these days but he loves sourdough :-)
So true what you said about flours. I have been doing a side by side comparison bleached vs unbleached and the bleached starter is more active and tastes better!! Trying this recipe now.
WOW! These are truly fantastic.
This is the third time making these and they only get better as I learn to make them. I've got a batch setting ready to make in the morning. We are using them in place of bread, buns, and egg Mc muffin copycat. 😋my favorite toasted. I'm going to try it with sunflower seeds in it. Thanks again.
I LOVE this! So simple and absolutely divinely delicious. I have been making this every day (I have seven kiddos...19-2) and sending them to work with my hubby too. I never would have tried making them if I hadn’t seen you do it. I make sourdough bread all the time but these are ah-mazing. I love your channel so much. Especially the healthy food stuff.

Favorite recipe! I've been using this recipe for two months now. I've made them blueberry, and have also made them extra large, so only 6 per recipe, great for sandwiches. I like making ahead and freezing. The website calls for 2 1/2 cups flour but I always end having to add more water. If you follow this recipe (2 cups) it works perfectly. Thank you Lisa. 🙂

You are great. Clear, concise and your recipes fantastic. I can see that making English muffins is going to take some practice. ...everyone’s stovetop is different. I don’t use cast iron (it’s too heavy for me). My English muffins turned out eatable but not the wow factor I was looking for. I’ll try again once I eat what I made. I used whole wheat flour and they could use more honey. I’ll also roll the dough in some cornmeal. I had some trouble with sticking with stainless pans. Thank you. Love your posts and energy.

We make these and now they’re on regular rotation. The oven or the low temp on the stove both work but I sometimes put a lid on the pans and add a few drops of water to let them steam.

Great tip!
I love how forgiving this stuff is. I've made this twice. First time I let it sit for a little over 12 hours and the dough was still super sticky, it was bubbly but I wasn't able to make balls of it, but poured it into the pan in circles anyways. Despite that it came out tasting great even in its flatter form lol used it for breakfast sandwiches, husband loved it. The second time I let it rise longer (kinda forgot about it and had to peel the top off) it was bubbly but still sticky. I put it in a different pan, about 2 tbsp in each cup of a cast iron muffin/cornbread pan and I put it in the oven at 200 for a while (didn't time it) till they were cooked enough to hold their form. They rose great that way and then I toasted them on the stovetop in a regular pan. They are perfect English muffin shape and texture and everything. Definitely give it a shot and don't stress about perfection. 🎉
These look so good - and adding butter and honey, oh my!! Stay warm - I’m in central MO and my thermometer is reading 31 today. Yesterday was way colder. I’m guessing you’re in the winter storm watch today - but not exactly sure where in MO you are!!

As a busy mom of 3, I got very frustrated with my first venture into sourdough. Your recipes make it look so easy. I’m now a mom of 5 but I don’t have a baby anymore. Maybe I’m ready for a second try at keeping a starter alive...
Thank you for this recipe. I am much more likely to use it if it is simple. Doesn’t need to be fast just simple. 😃
Baby is so comfy and right with Mom, where babies belong. I add about an additional 1/4 - 1/3 C of warmish water & 1/4 C of fresh cornmeal to the bowl with the flour and water. That extra water lets the cornmeal plump up better over night without drying up all the water from the wheat flour and starter. You may have to play with it a bit. Muffins are super crispy good when toasted with lots of butter, of course. Do so enjoy your videos!
Excellent thank you 👏👏😁
The last few weeks I think I’ve tried just about every sourdough recipe you have and can confirm they all are fantastic! We had these tonight with soup and I already started another batch for tomorrow lol.
