Homemade Hamburger Buns
Description
This recipe for Homemade Hamburger Buns starts with activating yeast in warmed milk sweetened with granulated sugar to encourage fermentation. The yeast mixture is combined with all-purpose flour, salt, an egg, and avocado oil to produce a smooth, shiny dough through kneading. After resting in a warm place to double in size, the dough is portioned into equal balls, shaped into rounds, and placed with space between them on a baking sheet.
Prior to baking at 350°F (177°C), the buns are brushed with milk and optionally sprinkled with black or white sesame seeds for added texture and flavor. Baking time of 15-17 minutes results in golden buns with a soft and slightly enriched crumb. The option to divide the dough into 12 pieces instead of 10 allows for smaller buns suitable for sliders or lighter sandwiches.
Ingredients
- 250 ml milk whole
- 15 g granulated sugar
- 8 g active dry yeast
- 500 g all-purpose flour
- 1 egg large
- pinch of sea salt
- 60 ml avocado oil
For the topping:
- 1 tablespoon milk whole
- 1 tablespoon black sesame seeds optional, or white sesame seeds
Instructions
- In a bowl, add the warmed milk, granulated sugar and yeast. Give it a stir and let the yeast activate.
- To a stand mixer bowl fitted with a dough hook attachment, add the flour, egg, salt, and oil. Add the activated yeast mixture and knead until the dough becomes smooth and shiny, about 5-8 minutes.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl and cover with a tea towel.
- Let the dough rise in a warm location until doubled in size, about 1-1.5 hours, depending on how warm it is.
- Once risen, deflate the dough and divide into 10 equal balls.
- Shape into a round ball with your hand and place each dough ball on a parchment-lined baking sheet, allowing a few inches in between.
- Press the dough down firmly to flatten and cover with a tea towel.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F/177°C.
- Once the dough balls have risen and are slightly puffy, lightly brush the tops with milk.
- Add toppings such as sesame seeds (if you wish).
- Bake at 350°F/177°C for 15-17 minutes, until lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.
- Let the buns cool before slicing in half.
Notes
- Divide the dough into 12 portions instead of 10 to yield smaller hamburger buns suitable for sliders or snacks.
