+
+## Ingredients
+
+- 1 tablespoons (13g) granulated sugar
+- 1 cups (227g) water, warm (110°F-115°F)
+- 1/2 cup (115g) sourdough starter, ripe (fed) or discard; ripe will give you a more vigorous rise
+- 3.5 cups (420g) unbleached all-purpose flour
+- 1/4 cup (28g) nonfat dry milk
+- 4 tablespoons (57g) butter, at room temperature
+- 2 teaspoons (11g) kosher salt
+- Coarse semolina flour or yellow cornmeal, for coating
+
+## Directions
+
+1. Combine all of the dough ingredients, except the cornmeal/semolina, in a large bowl.
+2. Mix and knead to form a smooth dough. The dough should be soft and elastic, but not particularly sticky; add additional flour if necessary.
+3. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover. If using discard and set it aside to rise at room tempurature for about 3 hours, or until it's noticeably puffy. For for ripe starter, bulk ferment a in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
+4. Gently deflate the dough, turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface, cover it, and let it sit for 10-20 minutes.
+5. Divide the dough into 8-12 equal portions. Shape into ball, and flatten to 3-4" round. 
+6. Place the rounds, evenly spaced, onto cornmeal- or semolina-sprinkled baking sheets. Sprinkle them with additional cornmeal/semolina, cover with plastic wrap, and let them rise until light and puffy, about 45 to 60 minutes. If the dough has been refrigerated overnight, the rise time will be about 2 hours.
+7. Carefully transfer the rounds individually to a large electric griddle preheated to 350°F, or to an ungreased frying pan that has been preheated over medium-low heat.
+9. Cook the muffins for about 10-12 minutes on their first side. Flip muffins, and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until the center of a muffin registers 190°F. Check frequently to ensure muffins aren't burning. Adjust heat if necessary.
+10. Remove the muffins from the griddle, and cool on a rack. 
+11. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature for 4 or 5 days; freeze for longer storage.
