Truly juicy homemade burger buns. Tommy Myllymäki’s recipe lives up to expectations.

Ingredients

For 6 buns

  • 25 g yeast
  • 250 ml milk (250 g / 2.5 dl)
  • 330 g special wheat flour (vetemjöl special) (5.5 dl)
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 25 g butter
  • milk for brushing
  • sesame seeds for topping

Instructions

  1. Crumble the yeast into a bowl. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Pour in the milk and stir. Heat to 37°C (98°F).
  2. Add the liquid to the bowl and stir until the yeast dissolves. Add salt and almost all the flour, saving a little for kneading. Work the dough for 10 minutes in a mixer or 15 minutes by hand.
  3. Let rise for 40 minutes under a kitchen towel.
  4. Knead the dough lightly with the remaining flour. Roll into balls, one per bun.
  5. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat the oven to 225°C (437°F) and brush the buns with whisked egg (alternatively use plant milk, add sugar for a sturdier/glossier surface).
  7. Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes until the buns get a nice color.
  8. (optional) Some double-brush if using plant milk, preferably with a sugar solution for durability.
