Homemade Hamburger Buns

These buns were hands down delicious.  They rose out and not up, but that's my fault.  You're only supposed to let them sit for 10-15 minutes and I let them sit for an hour.  My bad.  BUT they still served their purpose and were amazingly delicious! So much better than store bought buns and these make 12 so you can totally make a batch and freeze them until you are ready to use.  So much better for you than all those added preservatives.  Enjoy!


Homemade Hamburger Buns
Makes 12 Buns

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons active dry yeast
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons warm water
1/3 cup of a neutral oil, I used half coconut and half olive
3 tablespoons sugar
1 egg
1 tsp sea salt
3 to 3 1/2 cups organic all purpose flour

Directions:
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add oil and sugar; let stand for 5 minutes. Add the egg, salt and enough flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 3-5 minutes. Do not let rise. Divide into 12 pieces; shape each into a ball. Place 3 in. apart on greased baking sheets.
Cover and let rest for 10-15 minutes. Bake at 425° for 8-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.
