Hamburger Buns

Recipe View In a large bowl, gently whisk together the warm milk, melted margarine, warm water, sugar, and instant yeast. Allow the mixture to bloom for 5 minutes, until the yeast is activated and slightly frothy. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Incorporate the salt into the yeast mixture. Gradually add the all-purpose flour, mixing continuously until a soft dough forms. The dough should be slightly tacky but not sticky. (10 minutes)

Recipe View Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook on medium speed for 5 minutes. (7 minutes)

Recipe View Divide the dough into 25 equal portions. Gently roll each portion into a smooth ball. Arrange the dough balls on baking sheets lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are spaced 2 to 3 inches apart to allow for expansion. (10 minutes)

Recipe View Cover the baking sheets with a clean kitchen towel and let the buns rise in a warm place for approximately 20 minutes, or until they have nearly doubled in size. (20 minutes)

Recipe View Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bake the risen buns in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top. (15 minutes)

Recipe View Once baked, transfer the hamburger buns to a wire rack to cool slightly. Before serving, split them horizontally and fill with your favorite burger creations. (5 minutes)
