Ingredients

3/4 cup water, warm
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 teaspoons instant yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
2 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 large egg white, beaten

Steps:

To make dough; combine all dough ingredients and mix and knead by hand, mixer or bread machine - to make a soft dough.
Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place for an hour, until it's almost doubled in size.
Turn dough out onto a lightly greased surface, flatten slightly and divide it into 6 pieces, each weighing about 4 ounces.
Roll each piece into a ball. Place in the creased cups of a hamburger bun pan (or shape) and flatten gently.
Cover and let rise until buns have doubled in size.
Towards end of rising time, preheat oven to 375.
Bake buns for 10 minutes.
Remove from oven, bursh with lightly beaten egg white and sprinkle with seed topping; do this quickly or the seeds won't stick. Return buns to oven and bake for 5-8 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool on a rack.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients always yield the best results, especially when it comes to baking. Make sure your milk, eggs, and butter are fresh and at room temperature before you start baking.
Follow the recipe carefully: Baking is a science, so it's important to follow the recipe carefully. Don't substitute ingredients or change the measurements, as this can affect the final product.
Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough is an important step in the breadmaking process. Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. This will help to develop the gluten in the flour, which will give the buns a chewy texture.
Let the dough rise in a warm place: The dough needs time to rise in order to develop its full flavor and texture. Let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Bake the buns at a high temperature: Baking the buns at a high temperature will help to create a golden brown crust and a soft, fluffy interior.

Conclusion:

These hamburger buns are perfect for any occasion. They're soft, fluffy, and have a delicious golden brown crust. They're also easy to make, so you can have fresh, homemade hamburger buns whenever you want them. So next time you're making burgers, give these hamburger buns a try. You won't be disappointed!
