Diphaphata, also known as Stove Top Muffins, are a South African classic that can be enjoyed as a quick breakfast, snack or even as a side dish. These easy-to-make muffins can be prepared with basic pantry ingredients and take only a few minutes to cook on the stove top. They are similar to English muffins, but denser and with a slightly sweeter taste. Serve them with butter, jam or even cheese for a delicious and satisfying meal.

Instructions

1.	In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
2.	Gradually add the milk or water, mixing until the dough comes together.
3.	Knead the dough on a floured surface for a few minutes until smooth.
4.	Divide the dough into 8-10 equal portions and roll into balls.
5.	Flatten each ball into a disc using your hands.
6.	Heat a large skillet over medium heat and grease with cooking spray.
7.	Add the discs to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
8.	Repeat with the remaining dough.
9.	Serve the Diphaphata warm or at room temperature.
