MINI BURGER BUNS RECIPE BY TASTY



Mini Burger Buns Recipe by Tasty image

If you're looking to go the extra mile and make hamburger buns from scratch, try out this recipe! It's easy and the results are impressive. After the buns come out of the oven, we brush them with melted butter to make them even more delicious. We turned these into mini buns, but if you want to make regular-sizes buns, just divide the dough into 8 equal portions and bake for 15-18 minutes instead.

Provided by Katie Aubin

Categories     Appetizers

Time 2h10m

Yield 80 mini buns

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup lukewarm water
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
3 ½ cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 large egg
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, for finishing

Steps:

  • Add the lukewarm water to a 2-cup liquid measuring cup or medium bowl. Add the yeast and sugar and stir to combine. Let sit for 5-10 minutes, until frothy and doubled in volume.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Add the butter, egg, and the yeast mixture and stir with a rubber spatula into a shaggy dough.
  • Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and knead until smooth and soft, about 4 minutes. Place the dough in a clean large bowl lightly greased with nonstick spray and cover with a towel. Let rest until in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F ( 200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Lightly grease a clean surface and place the dough on top. Pat down with your hands to about ¼-inch thick. Use a ¾-inch (2-cm) round cutter to cut out small circles. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Brush the tops of the buns with melted butter, then bake for 7-10 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
  • Remove the buns from the oven and brush with more melted butter while they are still warm. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup yellow mustard
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
4 tablespoons grapeseed oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
12 slider buns
Twelve 3-ounce burger patties
Salt and pepper to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
12 slices American cheese
24 slices Roma tomato
3 cups shredded romaine lettuce

Steps:

  • For Paul's burger sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the sauce ingredients.
  • For the burgers: Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add about 1 tablespoon of oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to the skillet. When the butter has melted, working in batches, open the buns and toast them in the skillet until they are golden brown.
  • Wipe out the skillet and reheat it over medium-high heat. Season the burger patties with salt and pepper. Working in batches and using more of the oil and butter, place some of the burger patties in the skillet (do not crowd the pan). Cook until the burgers are well seared (about 3 minutes) and flip. Place a slice of cheese on each burger and continue to cook the burgers for 2 minutes longer. Cover the skillet to melt the cheese and steam the burgers. Continue until all the burgers are cooked, adding more oil and butter to the skillet between batches as necessary.
  • Spread each side of the buns with about 2 teaspoons of Paul's burger sauce. Season the tomato slices with salt and pepper and place the tomatoes on the bottoms of the buns. Place the cooked burger patties on top of the tomatoes and then top the burgers with shredded lettuce. Secure the tops of the buns on the burgers with frilled toothpicks or small bamboo skewers.

THE BEST "MINI BURGERS" YOU WILL EVER TASTE



The Best

These mini burgers are so good! The recipe comes from the Neely's. Everyone I have made these for starts craving them and wants more and more. Try these as the recipe is written for the best results and then change it up if desired. I have to tell you, I don't like mustard and I love cheese. This uses dijon mustard and does not have cheese. I even tried them with the cheese and didn't like them as well. Hope you enjoy!

Provided by quick meal

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 12 burgers, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tbsp.dijon mustard
1/2 tablespoon cayenne pepper
salt and pepper
1 lb hamburger
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 large red onion, sliced
12 party size hamburger buns

Steps:

  • Mix hamburger, onion powder and salt and pepper to taste. Form into several mini burgers.
  • Put burgers on grill or skillet. Add red onion slices around burgers to allow them to cook in the hamburgers juices.
  • While burgers cook, mix mayo, dijon mustard, cayenne pepper and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Remove burgers and onions when done. Drain grease from skillet. Toast buns in the skillet until they are the desired toastiness.
  • Put mayo mix on bottom bun. Put burger on top of mix and top with onion and top bun.
  • Enjoy.

Tips:

  • For the cookie base, use a pre-made sugar cookie dough or your favorite homemade recipe. Chilling the dough before baking helps the cookies hold their shape.
  • For the burger patties, use a combination of ground beef and pork for a flavorful and moist patty. Season the patties with your favorite burger seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • For the cheese, use a good quality cheddar cheese that melts well. Shred the cheese yourself for the best results.
  • For the sesame seeds, toast them in a pan over medium heat until they are golden brown. This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Assemble the cookies carefully. Place the burger patty on the bottom cookie, top with the cheese, and then add the top cookie. Press down gently to adhere the cookies together.
  • Bake the cookies according to the recipe instructions. Let them cool completely before serving.
