Hamburger buns:

2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)

1 cup warm water

3 tbsp sugar

3 tbsp butter

3 cups of flour

1 egg + another for the egg wash

Optional sesame seeds for on top the buns

Bloom your yeast in the warm water and sugar

Add butter, salt, and egg.

Add flour in 1/2 cup at a time. Dough should clean the sides of your bowl and not be overly sticky.
