I've been looking for a recipe for English muffins. First attempt failed as muffins but I managed to produce reasonable flatbreads. Too many distractions happening - well that's my excuse.
The recipe I used is a simple one though and would make good pizza dough.
Moving the thought process onwards, I experimented with making a sourdough loaf in the breadmaker using the same recipe. I set a sponge going overnight using all the water and 2/3rd of the flour. The next morning, the sponge was poured into the bread pan along with a little salt, sugar, the rest of the flour and a little bicarb soda. Normal setting produced a loaf with reasonable holes and the most amazing crust. Not sure I'd do it again though because the stirrer blade was well and truly embedded in the loaf and very difficult to remove because of the crisp crust.
