english muffins from scratch

I recently acquired a copy of Peter Reinhart's The Bread Baker's Apprentice and have spent many nights poring over the pages and ear-marking recipes to try. First up, english muffins.

Mine turned out bigger than usual english muffins and were a little misshapen, but they tasted delicious. And were perfect for Sunday morning toasted egg & cheese breakfast sandwiches:

While I was at it, I decided to bake up another dozen homemade bagels too. Now I've got breakfasts covered for the next couple of weeks.
