English Muffins

My stake had a food storage class last Thursday about homemade sourdough bread.  We each got a starter and some recipes.  Then we got to eat samples of sourdough french bread, English muffins, and artisan bread.  Yum!
This morning, I made the English muffins.  Well, actually it started last night.  I added milk and flour to the starter and let it sit out all night.  Then this morning, I added a few more ingredients, kneaded the dough, cut out 20 muffins and coated them with cornmeal.  Then they had to rise for 45 minutes.  After that, I 'baked' them in the electric skillet with the lid on.  I baked three batches and each batch took 15 minutes.
I'll admit, the were a little time-consuming, but worth it.  Steve said they were the best English muffins he's ever eaten.
