Directions
Beef Buns, From Good Housekeeping, These were tasty, and excellent for lunches all through the week. i added a good handful of seasonings and parsley to the dough, and left out the onion and pepper to the beef (I didn’t have any on hand!), and the flavored dough was a nice fragrant addition to the beef mixture. The buns did not stay nice and round however, but flattened out during the second rising and baking. so the end result was not pretty, but still ok to eat. I will make these again–maybe leave out one of the eggs and make the dough more stiff before rising., From Good Housekeeping
