These buns are very soft and delicious, yet they have enough consistency to hold all the ingredients of a fully loaded hamburger. They're nothing like what you find at the supermarket. I invite you to try this recipe and fill these buns with whatever you like.

Ingredients

12-16 pieces
  1. 5 1/4 cupsbread flour (about 650 grams)
  2. 2 tablespoonspowdered milk (optional)
  3. 3 tablespoonssugar (about 45 grams)
  4. 1 teaspoonsalt
  5. 25 gramsfresh yeast or 1 packet (7 grams) of dry yeast
  6. 1 1/2 cupswarm milk (about 350 ml)
  7. 1egg
  8. 5 tablespoonsmelted butter (about 70 grams)
  9. Sesame seeds (optional)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    First, crumble the fresh yeast or put the packet of dry yeast in a glass with the warm milk and sugar. Stir until dissolved and let it rest for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, weigh and prepare the rest of the ingredients.

  2. 2

    If you have a bread maker or stand mixer, the next step is to put all the ingredients in the bowl of your machine and knead for 15 to 20 minutes. If you need to do it by hand, form a well with the flour and put the rest of the ingredients in the center. Knead patiently and lovingly until the dough stops sticking to your hands and becomes elastic.

  3. 3

    Once this is achieved, form a ball with the dough and let it rest until it has doubled in volume. The time will depend on the room temperature, but it will range from 45 minutes to 2 hours.

  4. 4

    Once it has doubled in volume, knead it by hand for a minute to deflate it completely. Then cut portions of the same weight, between 80-100 grams depending on the size you like.

  5. 5

    Form balls with the portions of dough and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Leave space between them as they will increase in volume during rising and later during baking. Let them ferment for about 45-60 minutes in a draft-free place (I put them inside the turned-off oven).

  6. 6

    Once they have increased in volume, brush the buns with water and if you like, sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

  7. 7

    Place them in the preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) with heat from above and below. Bake for about 15 minutes or until they have the golden color you like.

  8. 8

    Once baked, transfer the buns to a rack to cool. You can consume them or store them in a bag or airtight container. If you won't consume them within a couple of days, it's better to freeze them in bags.
