My co workers (for the most part) don’t even know how to cook, let alone bake bread. I make homemade hamburger buns all the time, and rolls, and bread, cinnamon rolls, pepperoni rolls, etc. They all think I am crazy, if they only knew how much better homemade is….and it really isn’ that difficult.
One day a couple of weeks ago, we had 10-12″ of snow predicted over the evening and the next day. There is a grocery store right next door to my office, so I went over and bought a gallon of milk – not because it was supposed to snow, but because I needed it. Several people commented to me that I had the milk, where was the bread? When I told them I had flour and yeast at home, I did not need to buy bread, they looked at me like I was crazy. I just smiled and walked out the door….

I think it’s absolutely awesome that you make your buns. How cool is that? It would be so impressive at a cook out. I love the onion buns in the store but just don’t want to pay $3.00 a bag for them. Now I know how to make them! EVERY THING is better homemade!

Very easy and flavorful, but wow, could get 12 hotdog buns. Tried dividing my dough into 6 pieces and ended up with 6 sub sized rolls which I just cut in to to make the hot dog buns. Used the rest for sandwich rolls. Definitely will make this again as everyone liked the taste and texture.

Suzanne, I make bread about every other day and can’t wait to try your recipe. I will be making the buns too. I make a lot of sourdough bread and keep two starters going all the time. I have two loaves rising at this very moment. I understand exactly where you are coming from …my friends all think I’m nuts for going to all the effort of making bread. Truthfully, there is only two of us and we couldn’t possibly eat all the bread I make but my animals and the deer love it too.

They look incredible. I’ve been eyeing a recipe in King Arthur’s book. You’ve inspired me! Thanks. -Sandy
