Homemade Burger and Hot Dog Buns
Ingredients
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 (.25 ounce) package instant yeast
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 large egg
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary ingredients and materials.
2
Heat milk, water, and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until it reaches a warm temperature of approximately 120 degrees F (50 degrees C).
3
Combine 1 3/4 cups of flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a large mixing container.
4
Gradually pour the warm milk mixture into the flour mixture; stir until everything is well incorporated.
5
Add an egg to the mixture and then incorporate the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, ensuring each addition is thoroughly blended.
6
Transfer the dough to a lightly dusted surface; knead until it becomes smooth, elastic, and well-developed, taking around 8 minutes to achieve this.
7
If preparing burger buns: Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a smooth ball; place on a greased baking sheet and flatten slightly. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise for 30 to 35 minutes.
8
If preparing hot dog buns: Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a rectangular shape measuring 6x4 inches; roll up the dough tightly, then pinch the edges and ends to seal. Place on a greased baking sheet. Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise for 20 to 25 minutes.
9
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
10
Bake the buns in the preheated oven until they turn golden brown, taking 10 to 12 minutes to achieve this.
