Homemade Hamburger Buns

By Addie

"You will never want to buy hamburger buns again after trying this recipe. Easy to do using a bread machine and so awesome! You can also top rolls with sesame seeds after brushing with melted butter."

• 1 beaten eggs
• 2 tablespoons butter

This was amazing! I warmed the milk, butter and egg slightly first, and I used 1 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour. YUMMMMMMM. I also didn't roll it out but just pinched off pieces in the size I wanted and made them nice and round. The egg wash made them gorgeously golden and the taste was fabulous!

Wow! Awesome! These are so good - I will (barring moments of great laziness) Never buy store bought buns again! I made these to sandwich Paula Deen's Crab Cakes from the Food Network website. Delish! Thanks :) UPDATE: I've made these a million times now and they're wonderful! Today I was halfway thru making them and realized I was out of eggs, so I added an extra 1/2 teaspoon yeast, 2 Tablespoons of butter and a Tablespoon of canola oil. They turned out great!

These were and great! I use this recipe a lot during the summer for friends and family to really talk about. Lol! It's a blast and I truly enjoy receiving the rave reviews from others. Thanks so much Marie from my kitchen to yours. 5 stars all the wayWow! Awesome! These are so good - I will (barring moments of great laziness) Never buy store bought buns again!

Made these for use with Sloppy Joes for supper. My husband and all five kids loved them. Two of my boys even ate extra buns plain, no meat. The only change I made was substituting 1 1/2 cups of freshly ground whole wheat flour for an equal amount of the bread flour. Perfect!

Wow - it's amazing how the bread can really impact the burger! For the first time ever, my daughter ate a hamburger and I attribute it to the bun! I didn't cut out them out ... I just pulled off the amount of dough I wanted (I weighed the dough to make sure I had the same size buns - a lifesaver in this house!) and shaped it into a round. I used the "Proof" setting on my oven to rise them. When you make 18 rolls, they're the perfect slider size! Thanks for the great recipe! I'm making another batch as I write this!

This recipe is wonderful. Everyone raved about how good these breads tasted. I tried to cut out circles like suggested but they all came out to small and thin. I made a second batch and simply cut the dough in 12 pieces and rolled each in to a ball and flattened them out a bit. The second batch came out PERFECT. I will make these again and again!!!!!!

Very easy to make using the bread machine. I used 3/4c whole flour, 3tbsp wheat gluten and the balance All purpose flour. The buns are delicioius. Made half as hamburger and the other half as hotdog buns. Very light and fluffy...just what we were looking for. We will be making these again for sure.

Wow! I have to agree that these were REALLY good! I added slightly less sugar, and after brushing with the melted butter, I sprinkled on some dried minced onions and poppy seeds. I didn't cut them with the glass, just shaped them into an oval shape. They rose just fine, but mine took about 22 min to cook. We had them with some pulled pork, but both my DH and I also had another roll with just butter. I will definitely be making again! They would also be great for sandwiches or with soup!!

Just took 12 of these beautiful buns out of the oven for the first time. I made these for burgers which I intended to make for dinner tomorrow but didn't make it as we ate them up right away. They are amazingly light, flavorful and I can see them being used for hamburgers, hot dogs, sandwiches and dinner rolls. LOVE EM! Thank you for sharing!

I love this recipe! They came out soo soft n fluffy. Not to mention good! I would enjoy these by itself with some honey butter!
