Directions
Kittencal’s Sub/Sandwich Buns, This dough is an absolute pleasure to work with, it makes the best sub buns but of coarse you can use this dough for whatever you like, this dough also freezes well after the first rise and the baked buns also freeze well — I like to add in 1 teaspoon malt powder to the flour mixture but that is only optional, it works with the yeast to improve flavor and texture of the dough and also improves the flavor somewhat , These were a hit I cut them in half, smothered in garlic butter, broiled, then topped them with BBQ pulled pork The recipe was very easy and the dough handled well , Did not change a thing, these buns are perfect!!!
