Servings: 8 buns
Ingredients
- 1 cup water 110 degrees/just warmer than lukewarm
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 large egg lightly beaten, room temperature
- 3 1/4 cups all purpose flour 13 3/4 ounces
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon instant yeast
- 1 egg+1 tablespoon water for egg wash
- sesame seeds optional
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients together in a bowl and mix by hand or in a stand mixer until you reach a soft, smooth dough. On testing day, we needed an extra 1/4 cup flour to achieve the proper consistency. Cover and rise 1 hour.
- Divide dough into 8 equal pieces approximately 96 grams each, and shape each into a flattened ball. Place the buns on greased baking sheets or on parchment paper cover with greased plastic wrap and rise 30 to 40 minutes until puffy.
- Egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Preheat oven to 375 and bake 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown
