    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1 2/3           cups  milk -- scalded, (180F)
    4        tablespoons  unsalted butter
    1 1/2      teaspoons  salt
    2        tablespoons  honey
    1              large  egg -- lightly beaten
    2 1/4      teaspoons  yeast
    4               cups  all-purpose flour
    1                cup  whole wheat flour
                          cornmeal -- for dusting board

Pour scalded milk into a lg mixing bowl.  Stir in butter, salt and 
honey, and mix until the butter is melted.  Let cool to 105F.  Stir 
in the egg and yeast.  Stir in both flours, and mix to form a rough ball.

Turn the dough out on to a floured board and knead for 5-8 min until 
smooth.  Place the dough into a lg bowl, and cover with a clean 
cloth.  Let the dough rise for 1 hr in a warm, draft-free area or 
until doubled in bulk.

Turn out the dough onto a floured board, and roll out to 1/2" 
thick.  Use a 3" round cookie cutter to cut dough into 
circles.  Place the circles on a baking sheeet, and sprinkle lightly 
with cornmeal on one side.  Let the circles rest for 20 min.

Heat a griddle or cast iron skillet over low heat.  Gently place the 
muffins in the skillet cornmeal-side down.  Cook the muffins for 6-8 
min.  Monitor them carefully to make sure they're browning but not burning.

Slice muffins lengthwise, and toast them.  Serve with butter and jam, 
or make a breakfast sandwich with eggs and bacon.  Leftover muffins 
can be sliced and frozen.  Place frozen muffins halves in the toaster to thaw.

Tip:
For a sweet change of pace, add 1C of raisins or dried fruit to the 
dough before kneadingl
