How To Make Sesame Hamburger Buns / Burger Buns 

DOUGH

While making the dough you will notice that this dough is really STICKY. Please do not panic as its meant to be sticky. As you work the dough you will notice that the dough feels less sticky and forms a super soft and slightly smooth ball. 

FERMENTING

In this sesame hamburger buns recipe, fermenting the dough at various stages is what yields a good texture. Thus, once mixed we need to ferment the dough. Then, punch it back and referment it. Form small dough balls and further, ferment twice again. These steps help in getting a soft bun with a crisp texture and doing it at every stage is essential. Also, at each stage, while fermenting cover the dough or the dough balls with cling wrap

BAKING THE SESAME HAMBURGER BUNS

Note, the buns do spread while baking, make sure to maintain a distance between every bun to avoid the buns from sticking to each other. The bottom of the bun needs to be light brown once baked. Do not open the oven door for the first 15 mins, since this is when the real baking is happening. 

STORING THE BUNS 

Note, that they taste best when freshly made and also remain well for 2-3 days. However, if you plan on storing it longer, put it in an airtight container or bag and freeze it. Also, it can be frozen for up to 2-2.5 months. Next, thaw the buns when needed, microwave and serve.

  1. Hey i just show your humbugger burn recipe can i get substitute for egg in this recipe. I want to try this recipe but I don’t eat eggs so if you can help me with substitute..
    Thanks

    1. I’ve personally not made an eggless version of this bun but you may try. Just mix 2 tbsps of flaxseed powder with 6 tbsps of water. Set aside for 5 mins and use in the recipe instead of the 2 eggs

  2. These look perfect. Seriously. The buns I get at the bakery don’t even look this good! I love to make dinner rolls, maybe I need to branch out a little and try this recipe!!!

  3. This is such a timely post as I was recently telling my hubby that I’d like to start making our own bread instead of buying it. I can’t believe how beautiful and perfect these turned out!

  4. I’ve never tried to make my own hamburger buns before, and I don’t know why not. With just me in the house, I hate buying a big bag of buns because I never use them all. I could make just what I need with this recipe

  5. My husband and son love hamburgers! Most of the time I just buy buns at the store, but occasionally, I’ll make them homemade. Scratch made are so much better than store bought!! We’ll have to give your recipe a try next time. They look perfect and great for any type of burger!

  6. Aint nothing better than a soft homemade bun with your burger. This looks and sounds wonderful. Love the sesame sprinkle on top and such a beautiful color on those buns..perfection!

  7. Between the beautiful color on the outside and the gorgeous texture on the inside, these buns have me swooning and preparing my grill for some hamburger love! Perfection!
