Description

Directions

• Heat water and milk in the microwave to 110-115 degrees. Add yeast and 1 Tablespoon of sugar.
• Allow yeast mixture to sit until frothy. Usually, this takes about 5 to 10 minutes.
• While waiting for yeast, mix flours, sugar, salt, and butter in the stand mixer using the paddle attachment. The mixture should resemble coarse cornmeal when finished.
• Add one of the eggs and yeast mixture to the flour.
• Change to the dough hook and knead on low speed for 6 to 8 minutes.
• The dough should be smooth and not too sticky. Add additional flour if needed.
• Remove the dough from mixing bowl and place in a separate greased bowl. Cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap.
• Allow to double in size. This usually takes about an hour.
• Once the dough has risen, remove it from the bowl and press it down to remove the air.
• Cut the dough into 8 equal pieces.
• Roll each piece into a ball and tuck loose ends underneath. Place each ball (bun) onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silicone baking sheet.
• Cover buns with a clean towel again and allow to rise a second time.
• In the meantime, place an oven-safe bowl of water in an oven preheated to 400 degrees. There should be enough water to create steam.
• Make an egg wash by mixing the remaining egg and 1 to 2 Tablespoons of water.
• After the buns have risen a second time, use a pastry brush to apply the egg wash to each bun.
• Place the buns in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
• Serve immediately. Enjoy!
