Ingredients

Scale

  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 egg

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast: In a large bowl, combine warm milk and yeast; let it sit for about 5 minutes.

  3. Knead the dough: Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. Shape the buns: Punch down the dough and divide it into equal portions; shape each into a bun.
  6. Second rise: Place the shaped buns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper; cover and let rise again for 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  8. Brush & garnish (optional): Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  9. Bake: Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
  10. Let cool: Let cool before serving with hot dogs.

Notes

For best results, ensure your yeast is fresh and the dough rises in a warm environment.
