Directions
Kittencal’s Hamburger/Burger Buns, These are the best homemade buns for burgers they bake out soft and light and the dough is a pleasure to work with, they also make wonderful sandwich buns too, this will yield between 12-14 buns depending on how big you make them, I sometimes add in 1/2 teaspoon malt powder but it is not necessary — Canadian residents can use all-purpose flour, U S residents use bread flour, The directions mention adding malt How much may I add , These were awesome Followed the recipe to the letter except I only added two T of sugar as we are not fond of sweet hamburger rolls Also, when it came to the yeast, I just added one package of yeast I noticed that the salt is not included in the instructions portion of the recipe, but I tossed it in with the flour and such Also, I opted to use standard flour rather than bread flour as it is cheaper to use I mixed this with the dough attachment using my KAid stand mixer and the dough was fabulous I preheated the oven to 200 so that my rise time was only one hour and opted to just spray the tops of the buns with PAM cooking spray rather than use the egg white (no sesame seeds added) These buns turned out fabulous They weren’t as heavy as some that I have made in the past which is exactly what I was looking for Thank you for a wonderful recipe I no longer buy bread products so I will be using this again and again and again! This is a definite keeper My search is over 🙂
