belle's hamburger buns

Ingredients

• Servings: 12
• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup water
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 5 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 tablespoon water

Recipe

Cook Time: 20 mins Ready Time: 2 hrs 20 mins


• combine the milk, 1 cup of water, butter, sugar and salt in a saucepan. bring to a boil then remove from the heat and let stand until lukewarm. if the mixture is too hot, it will kill the yeast.
• in a large bowl, stir together the flour and yeast. pour in wet ingredients and stir until the dough starts to pull together. if you have a stand mixer, use the dough hook to mix for about 8 minutes. if not, knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes. place the dough in a greased bowl, turning to coat. cover and let stand until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• punch down the dough and divide into 12 portions they should be a little larger than a golf ball. make tight balls out of the dough by pulling the dough tightly around and pinching it at the bottom. place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. after the rolls sit for a minute and relax, flatten each ball with the palm of your hand until it is 3 to 4 inches wide. you may want to oil your hand first. set rolls aside until they double in size, about 20 minutes.
• preheat the oven to 400 degrees f (200 degrees c). mix together the egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of water in a cup or small bowl. brush the tops of the rolls. position 2 oven racks so they are not too close to the top or bottom of the oven.
• bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven. remove the rolls from the oven and return them to different shelves so each one spends a little time on the top. continue to bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until nicely browned on the top and bottom.
