Sourdough English muffins

Quel bonheur de se lever le matin et de déguster de bons petits pains maison tout chauds, alors oui je sais je vous vends du rêve là mais c’est ce que je vous propose avec ces english muffins maison au levain ! Mais si vous savez ces petits pains anglais servis chaud avec une garniture sucrée ou salée et maltraités par Mc D***** à l’heure du petit déjeuner ! Là on redonne toutes ces lettres de noblesse au muffin anglais avec une recette saine et nourrissante. Alors si vous avez encore un levain qui traîne dans le frigo, now is the time to reactivate it and start making these homemade English muffins !

Perfect breakfast, these buns adapt to everything,

sweet or savory, it's up to you to choose what you prefer as a topping. The little extra, is that you can freeze them once cooked without problem, and that you can take them out at will on mornings when there is nothing left in the cupboards or when you are missing a muffin ! In short you will see the recipe is super simple, but like all sourdough bread making requires a little time before, yes, nature and good things require time and patience (little meditation of the day hello !).
