Homemade Hamburger Buns
 
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon active-dry yeast
  • ½ cup (4 oz) warm water
  • ½ cup (4 oz) milk (whole, 2%, or skim)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups (15 oz) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
  1. In the bowl of a standing mixer (or a large bowl, if mixing by hand), stir the yeast into the warm water and let it sit until dissolved.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, oil, sugar, and salt. Add this to the yeast mixture and stir until combined. Add all the flour and stir until it forms a shaggy dough. Knead at low speed, or by hand against the counter, for 10 minutes. The finished dough should be smooth, feel slightly tacky, and spring back when poked.
  3. Return the dough to the mixing bowl and cover. Let the dough rise in a warm spot until doubled in bulk, about an hour.
  4. Dust your work surface with a little flour and turn out the risen dough on top. Divide the dough into 8 pieces and shape each into a tight ball. Transfer the balls to a baking sheet and let rise until they look puffy and hamburger-sized, roughly 30-40 minutes.
  5. Pre-heat the oven to 375°F.
  6. Melt the butter and brush it over the risen hamburger buns. This helps the tops to brown and keeps the crust soft. Bake the buns until golden, 15-18 minutes.
  7. Let the buns cool to room temperature before slicing and using. They are best if eaten within the next day or two, but will keep in an airtight container on the counter for up to a week.

Nice post. I be taught something more difficult on different blogs everyday. It would always be stimulating to read content material from other writers and practice a bit of something from their store. I’d desire to make use of some with the content material on my blog whether or not you don’t mind. Natually I’ll provide you with a hyperlink on your internet blog. Thanks for sharing. best online casino
