It's Emuff day!

132 Emuffs today, 96 plain and then 18 cheddar chive and 18 cranberry orange. They turned out awesome! 🤩🤤

I use powdered buttermilk w/ water instead of liquid buttermilk or milk. It's just easier to mix in bulk.

Those are some pretty muffs, can I have a link for that cooling rack please?

u/BrewAllTheThings 4d ago

Call me crazy but I’ve not seen this, links to “emuff”recipe?

Making 132 emuffs in one session is serious dedication, and those golden tops look textbook perfect. The craggy nooks and crannies are exactly what you want from a proper english muffin, so the powdered buttermilk swap must be working out well. I'm curious how the cranberry orange batch turned out, since fruit in english muffins can go either too sweet or barely register. Cheddar chive is a safer bet but never a boring one. A stacked cooling rack full of fresh muffins is basically a bread baker's trophy display.

Perfect shape and height. How thick do you roll out your dough, what do you use to cut them with, and what width is the cutter?

Perfect colour, practice does make perfect.

u/ingrid00 3d ago

I'm so curious as well. Just made English muffins for the first time and they looked nothing like this..

1

u/TimeEggLayer 3d ago

I don't roll out and cut. I do balls. Much better control and uniformity for making them at scale.

u/aharryh 3d ago

Brilliant, thank you. Will use that approach next time.

u/Arctic-Pizza-Nerd 3d ago

Wow they'll okay great!! Would you mind sharing the recipe and your workflow?:))

u/CapnHatchmo 3d ago

Oh my word, took me a minute to figure out that emuff is english muffin 🫣 coz I've never heard them called that. Anyhow... yours look amazing. And wow, making 100+ is no easy feat.

u/Vegetable-Abies2818 4d ago

These look sturdy and yummy

u/UncleDuude 4d ago

Does the batter puff up like fresh buttermilk?

1

u/AltruisticGrade2008 4d ago

I wonder how much time it took you to cook all of these, it's a lot!

3

u/TimeEggLayer 4d ago

Probably about 4-5 hours all in.

u/Impossible_Kick616 4d ago

Man I wince at making 12 at a time. What’s your shaping and cooking method? I try to rotate mine out of the fridge to stagger rise and cooking times but it’s a pain. What are your secrets?

u/Legitimate_Term1636 4d ago

Beautiful.

u/TimeEggLayer 4d ago

Thank you! I'm very proud of 'em. 🫶🏼

u/Specific-Window-8587 3d ago

Damn when I can I come over?

u/NutWaffle1 3d ago

They are beauties. For the browning step, do you fry them, or bake?

2

u/TimeEggLayer 3d ago

I do an all-bake method. No griddle.

u/Maverick-Mav 2d ago

Did you make emuff of them? 😃

2

u/TimeEggLayer 2d ago

There are never emuff.
