1 | packet instant yeast |
2 Tablespoon | sugar or honey |
3 Tablespoon | butter, softened |
1 Large | egg |
4 1/2 Cup | bread flour |
1 1/2 Teaspoon | kosher salt |
3 Tablespoon | semolina flour |
1
Place milk, yeast, sugar, butter, egg, bread flour and kosher salt in the bowl of an electric mixer with the paddle attachment, and mix on low for 1 to 2 minutes.
2
Increase the speed and mix on medium for 4 minutes, or until the dough is shiny and pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Place the sticky dough into a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for 90 minutes.
3
When ready to cook, set Traeger temperature to 325°F and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.
325 ˚F / 163 ˚C
4
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board, portion into 15 balls, and let them sit for 5 minutes before shaping. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and sprinkle with semolina flour.
5
Gently pat the dough into round discs about 3 to 4 inches in diameter, and place onto the prepared sheet pan, and cover with a kitchen towel until ready to bake.
6
Place 4 to 6 muffins directly onto the preheated grill plate, and cook with the lid closed for 8 to 9 minutes.

With a spatula, flip the English muffins over and press down slightly if the centers have risen more than the sides. Cook for another 8 to 9 minutes, until the outside is golden brown and the center is cooked through (at least 200°F).

Let cool for a bit before splitting with a fork. Enjoy! Notes: Insert the fork prongs on the side towards the center of the muffin and remove. Continue around the muffin and then separate with your hands. If using a knife to cut them, you will lose all the beautiful pockets inside. These store well in the freezer. Keep them whole if freezing, then defrost before splitting with a fork and toasting.
