Azores Griddle Muffins
Ingredients
  • 1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • 6 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup melted butter, cooled
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
Instructions
1
Start by mixing yeast with warm water and a small amount of sugar in a tiny bowl. Let it sit for about 10 minutes, allowing the yeast to activate and start fermenting.
2
Next, combine the yeast mixture with sugar, eggs, salt, flour, and milk in a larger bowl. Mix everything together until the dough forms a cohesive ball. Add melted butter to the mixture and then transfer it to a surface dusted with flour. Knead the dough for around 10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
3
Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rest for about 45 minutes, allowing it to rise and double in size.
4
Divide the dough into 15-20 equal pieces, depending on your preference. Shape each piece into a thin, round cake about 1/2 inch thick.
5
Prepare a surface by sprinkling flour on it and then place a cloth on top. Arrange the cakes on the cloth, leaving enough space for them to rise further.
6
Let the cakes sit for about 1.5 hours, allowing them to set and become more pliable.
7
Heat a heavy skillet over low heat and carefully place the cakes inside. Cook them on each side until they're golden brown, flipping them gently to achieve even cooking.
