Yields12 ServingsPrep Time2 days 4 hrs 10 minsCook Time40 minsTotal Time2 days 4 hrs 50 mins

 100 g Active Sourdough Starter
 250 g Cold Full Cream Milk
 400 g Bread Flour
 6 g Salt
 10 g Honey
 Cornmeal or Polenta for dusting
1

Combine all the ingredients, excluding the cornmeal, in a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment and mix on low speed until everything comes together

2

Continue mixing on low speed to knead the dough for 6-8 minutes

3

Cover the bowl and set aside to begin bulk fermenting for 2-4hrs and then transfer to the fridge to continue fermenting a further 2 days.

4

On a large tray or platter, sprinkle a thin layer of cornmeal.

5

Remove the dough from the fridge and seperate the into 12 roughly equal pieces.
Shape each piece into a ball and press down into the cornmeal gently to flatten into a muffin sized round.

6

Sprinkle the top of each dough piece lightly with cornmeal and leave to rise, covered at room temperature for a further 1-2 hrs until soft and puffy.

7

Preheat a flat sandwich toaster, griddle or panini press.

8

Gently transfer the muffin pieces in batches to cook on the bottom plate of the open sandwich toaster for 10 minutes each side. They should be evenly golden brown - depending on your appliance this time will vary.

9

Once cooked, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

10

Using a fork, poke around the middle line of each muffin and gently pry apart into two pieces.
