I never baked much bread-much less hamburger buns-until I worked as a baker at a ranch camp. This recipe from the camp files has become a favorite of mine.-Dawn Fagerstrom, Warren, Minnesota

Best Whole Wheat Hamburger Buns - Made in an hour! Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 12

OPTIONAL:
1 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup butter
1 3/4 cups whole wheat flour (King Arthur Flour recommended)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour* (or bread flour. King Arthur Flour recommended)
1 (.25 ounce) package instant yeast (I used Fleischmann's Rapid Rise Yeast)
2 tablepoons white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 egg
1 egg, whisked
1 to 2 tablespoons poppy or sesame seeds

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, heat milk, water and butter until very warm, 120°F (50°C). In a large bowl, mix together 1 3/4 cup flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Mix milk mixture into flour mixture, and then mix in egg. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Variation: You can mix all the ingredients in a Kitchen Aid Stand mixer- with the dough attachment. Knead until the dough is elastic and smooth-- 5 to 8 minutes. Divide dough into 10 to 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a square. Don't worry about perfection. To shape the hamburger roll, grab one corner and fold it in, repeat with all four corners. Grab the center, and twist. Place onto a lightly floured surface and gently roll around (folded side down) and then gently shape the sides into a round shape. TIP: Turn your oven on WARM for 2 to 3 minutes and then shut off. This will help to speed up the "proofing" of your dough. Place the rolls onto a parchment covered baking sheet (or greased). If you desire softer edges, place the rolls closely together. If desired, brush each roll with the egg wash and sprinkle with poppy or sesame seeds. Cover with a clean tea towel, and let rise for 20 to 25 minutes. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Once baked and cooled, these rolls freeze well. To reheat, wrap in foil and bake at 350°F for 5 to 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your hamburger buns. Look for organic, unbleached whole wheat flour, and fresh, active yeast.
  • Activate the yeast properly: Be sure to proof the yeast in warm water with a little sugar before adding it to the dough. This will help to ensure that the yeast is active and will produce a good rise.
  • Knead the dough well: Kneading the dough helps to develop the gluten, which will give the buns a chewy texture. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise twice: After the dough has been kneaded, let it rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size. Then, punch down the dough and let it rise again for about 30 minutes.
  • Shape the buns: Once the dough has risen, divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a bun by rolling it into a ball and then flattening it slightly.
  • Bake the buns: Place the buns on a greased baking sheet and bake them in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

Conclusion:

These whole wheat hamburger buns are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional white buns. They are made with simple, wholesome ingredients and are packed with flavor. Plus, they are easy to make and can be enjoyed by everyone. So next time you are making hamburgers, give these whole wheat buns a try. You won't be disappointed!
