July 14, 2024 by BMA24

These homemade hamburger buns are soft, fluffy, and perfect for your favorite burgers. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create delicious buns that elevate any burger to the next level.

πŸ“‹ Ingredients:

  • 🌾 3 1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 🍬 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • πŸ§‚ 1 teaspoon salt
  • 🌿 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  • πŸ₯› 1 cup warm water (110Β°F/45Β°C)
  • πŸ₯› 1/2 cup warm milk (110Β°F/45Β°C)
  • 🧈 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • πŸ₯š 1 large egg

For the Egg Wash:

  • πŸ₯š 1 large egg
  • πŸ’§ 1 tablespoon water
  • 🌿 Sesame seeds or poppy seeds (optional)

πŸ“ Directions:

  1. Prepare the Yeast Mixture:
  • In a small bowl, combine the warm water, warm milk, granulated sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5 minutes, or until the mixture becomes frothy.
  1. Mix the Dough:
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 1/2 cups of flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and egg. Stir until the dough begins to come together.
  • Gradually add more flour, a little at a time, until the dough is no longer sticky and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
  1. Knead the Dough:
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  1. First Rise:
  • Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
  1. Shape the Buns:
  • Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Gently flatten each ball with your hand to form a bun shape.
  1. Second Rise:
  • Cover the buns with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until they have puffed up.
  1. Prepare the Egg Wash:
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Brush the tops of the buns with the egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds or poppy seeds if desired.
  1. Bake:
  • Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
  1. Cool:
  • Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.
  1. Serve:
    • Slice the buns in half and use them for your favorite homemade hamburgers.
