A TAVOLA
BRIOCHE BURGER BUNS
Something just hits different when you make your own buns for burgers or sandwiches. ​So I thought I would share a recipe with you so that you can enjoy them at home or make them for a party you are going to .
​
These are pretty easy to make and keep up with. This batch should make 8 burger sized buns.
​
​
​
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons warm water
1 1/4 cup bread flour ( we use Sir Galahad)
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup warm milk
1/2 cup softened butter
​
1. In a small bowl, mix yeast, sugar, ar warm water. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes to activate yeast.
2. Using a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, combine flour, salt, yeast mixture, 1 egg, and warm milk.Add butter 1 tablespoon at a time and mix until a soft dough forms. Switch to a dough hook attachment and knead dough for 8 to 10 minutes, or until smooth.
3. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in size,
(1 to 1½ hours)
4. Once risen, punch down dough, divide into 8 portions, and shape into buns.
5. Place on a parchment-lined sheet and let rise for an additional 30 to 40 minutes.
6. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, beat remaining egg with a fork. Brush buns with egg wash and sprinkle sesame seeds on top if using.
7. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until lightly golden.
8. Let cool before slicing.
