Hamburger Buns

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons active dry yeast

• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons warm water about 110 degrees

• 1/3 cup vegetable oil

• 1/4 cup sugar

• 1 large egg beaten

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 3 to 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

• For topping

• 1 egg yolk

• 1 TBSP water

• 2 TBSP sesame seeds

Instructions:

1. Add yeast and warm water to a large bowl. Add oil and sugar; let stand for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, mixture should be foamy.

2. Whisk in egg. Slowly mix in the salt and flour. Continue to add flour until you have a soft dough.

3. Using a dough hook, knead in a mixer for 3-5 minutes, until dough is smooth and elastic. (If you don't want to use a mixer, you can knead by hand on a lightly floured surface.) Do not let rise.

4. Divide into 8 equal pieces; shape each into a ball. Do not let the dough rise.

5. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place the dough balls on a greased or lined baking sheet. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, brush the buns with an egg was, then sprinkle with sesame seeds.

6. Bake until golden brown, 8-12 minutes.
