Homemade Hamburger Buns


These buns are not to hard to make, delicious and sturdy.  We had them with some grilled hamburgers, but they would be excellent with some pulled pork or chicken.  The original recipe comes from kingarthurflour.com.  As you can probably tell from my posts, I have been exploring their website and recipes lately.  Great recipes to be found there!
Whisk together:
3/4 c. warm water
1T. yeast
2 T. soft butter
1 egg
1/4 c. sugar
1 1/4 t. salt
Slowly mix in 3 1/2 c. flour.  Knead until smooth.  Put in a buttered bowl and let rise for 1 1/2-2 hours, or until doubled.  Stir down the dough.  Shape into 8 balls.  Place on parchment lined baking sheet.  Let rise 1 hour.  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Bake buns for 15 minutes.  If you want to add sesame seeds to the top, before baking brush with an egg wash (1 egg whisked with 1 T. water.)
Then brush with seeds.  If you do not put seeds on, when the buns come out of the over brush with some butter.
