This No-Knead English Muffin Bread is a delicious and easy-to-make homemade bread that combines the texture and flavor of classic English muffins in a convenient loaf form. Made with minimal effort, this bread requires no kneading and is perfect for toasting with butter or your favorite spreads.

Ingredients

Scale

Yeast Mixture

  • 4 teaspoons yeast
  • 2 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1 cup warm water

Dough

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups warm milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients. In a stand mixer bowl or a large mixing bowl if mixing by hand, combine the yeast, sugar, warm water, salt, flour, warm milk, and baking soda until the mixture forms a sticky, wet dough. Use a dough whisk or spatula to achieve a thorough mix.
  2. Transfer to Loaf Pan. Scoop or pour the sticky dough into a large greased hearth loaf pan, or divide into two standard greased loaf pans. Smooth the top slightly to even out the surface.
  3. First Rise. Leave the dough uncovered in a warm spot for 45 minutes to 1 hour, allowing it to rise and become puffy.
  4. Bake the Bread. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the loaf pan on the middle rack and bake for 20 to 25 minutes until the bread is golden and sounds hollow when tapped.
  5. Cool and Slice. Remove the bread from the oven and immediately transfer it out of the pan onto a wire rack to cool completely. When ready to serve, slice using a bread slicer for even pieces, then toast as you would an English muffin.

Notes

  • The dough will be very sticky and wet; do not add extra flour as this bread has a soft crumb that mimics English muffins.
  • Using warm water and warm milk helps activate the yeast properly for a good rise.
  • Allow the bread to cool fully before slicing to avoid crumbling.
  • You can store the bread wrapped tightly at room temperature for 2-3 days or freeze slices for longer keeping.
  • Toast the bread well to bring out the characteristic English muffin texture and flavor.
