40 Minute Hamburger Buns or Rolls

I made these last night. Really good and really easy! (Used all water for the liquid.) We liked both their flavor and texture.

Played around with it a little bit. After dividing the dough into 12 peices, I shaped 4 as hamburger buns, 4 as hot dog buns, and the remaining 4 were divided into 3 pieces each to make 12 slider size buns. Here's a pic and some notes:

- The pic is a little dark. The table top in the background is white porcelain, so you get the idea.
- I rolled out 3 of the hotdog rolls (per my previous post) and tried just a rope shape for 1 - that 1 ended up with a bit of an elbow, shown on the bottom right. (Still quite useable though)
- The slider buns would also be a good small dinner roll size
- Next time I'm going to try some whole wheat flour - 1 cup as TipsyDog said

Perfect 'keeper recipe'. Thanks Betty!

A mini-hamburger that can be eaten in 2-3 bites (or maybe 1-2 bites for men). The fast food places like White Castle and Krystal's call them Sliders. Other fast food chains call them Burger Buddies, Burger Shots. Restaurants like Chilis, Applebees, etc call them Big Bites, Mini Bites, etc.

Sorry, hangin'witthepeeps

KimNC: Those look great! I'm going to make the hot dog buns too. I think you'll love them more with a cup of whole wheat flour. I'll be making another batch tomorrow and freezing them! Yummmm

How cute is that? Thanks Kim, we don't have any of those restaurants around here. All we have is a mom and pop type store/gas station/restaurant/feed store. We do have one real restaurant but it's a Mexican food place. The only sliders I knew about were the turtles around here they call Red Eared Sliders. I didn't think you were talking about them.

Made these last night - super easy - everyone loved them - really tasty - but.... mine didn't come out like everyone elses. They didn't brown. The bottom got a nice golden brown but the rest of the bun did not. I live at about 4800' elevation & cooked them an extra 10" because they didn't look done (still kind of pasty). Very dense. I separated them into 16 pieces and they were roll sized. I know baking at a higher elevation calls for adjustments sometimes. Can anyone help?

I just took another batch out of the oven and they are wonderful! This time I weighed them off (about 2.5 - 3 oz) and they are more uniform, although it yielded 11 buns, so they are larger. Mine always burn on the bottom. Could be my pans, I'll have to get some parchment paper and try them that way.

SparksNV: I don't know why they don't brown, mine brown quickly and I have to watch they don't burn! Probably is your elevation.
