Make the dough for English muffins in the bread machine, then bake the loaves in the oven, and toast slices just before eating for the best taste. My grandma used to bake her loaves in large greased cans coated with cornmeal, which added to the English muffin appearance. Today she uses nonstick pans.
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm milk
- 0.25 cups water
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 tablespoons white sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.13 teaspoons baking powder
- 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast
Instructions
-
1
Place milk, water, flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and yeast into a bread machine in the order listed, or follow the order recommended by the manufacturer if different. Run Dough cycle. Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done, about 90 minutes.
-
2
Shape 2/3 of the dough into a loaf; place into a 9x5-inch nonstick loaf pan. Shape remaining dough into a smaller loaf; place into a 7x3-inch nonstick loaf pan. Cover and let rise until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Bake loaves in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 15 minutes. Carefully tip loaves out of the pans onto a work surface and gently tap bottoms. If they sound hollow, bread is done.

Mom's Potato Latkes
Latkes (potato pancakes) are a must-have at Hanukkah, but are really wonderful any time of the year! This is my mother's recipe, which is honestly the best potato latke I've had. I usually end up making a second batch because they disappear so quickly. I've tried other recipes and always return to this one. Lovely topped with sour cream or applesauce.
Warm Blue Cheese Dip with Garlic and Bacon
Even people who don't like blue cheese love this hot bacon-blue cheese dip. It can be served with vegetables, but I find people like it best with French bread.
Orange Cumin Vinaigrette
Vibrant and fruity, this orange cumin vinaigrette recipe requires no whisking, drizzling, or machinery of any kind — just a jar with a lid. This "make and shake" method should only be used if you're going to eat your salad right away.
