Soft and tender. A bit more work than the other buns on this site.
Ingredients
Dough
- 283g (10oz) room temp water
- 2 Large eggs
- 571g Flour
- 50g Sugar
- 12.5g Salt
- 182g Unsalted butter cut into pieces
- 7g Rapid rise yeast
Egg Glaze
- 1 Large egg lightly beaten
- 1 Tbsp water
Toppings
- Sesame seeds (optional)
Directions
- Add ingredients to the pan in the order listed and select the DOUGH course
- Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper
- When the DOUGH course completes, remove the dough from the baking pan and place it on a lightly floured board. Divide into 10 ~118g portions (or 12 85g portions) rolled into balls.
- Evenly space 5 buns on each baking sheet. If using bread flour, lightly press down on the balls to create more a disc shape. For AP flour, you don’t need to do this as it will spread by itself.
- Cover loosely with plastic and let rise at room temperature for 1-3hrs (until desired size)
- Brush with egg glaze and sprinkle white sesame.
- Bake in an oven preheated at 350°F, ~15 minutes or until 205-210F internal temp
