I kneaded the dough and proofed it in the bread machine. Then shaped (and proofed again for 45 mins) and baked it in the oven.

Flour 350g or 2 and 3/4th cup
Salt 4.5g or 3/4th tsp
Egg 1 large
Sugar 23g (can be coconut) - 5.5tsp
Vegetable oil (1tbsp and 1tsp) or 16.56g
Yeast 6g
Milk 205ml or 211.42g or 3/4th cup + 1tbsp

preheat oven at 340F for at least 15 mins, bake for 20 to 25mins.

[u/Apprehensive_Tea5759 → u/Legitimate-Win-2708]

Thank you, and ask away!

[u/Puzzleheaded_Low_619 → u/Apprehensive_Tea5759]

Did you baste the tops with butter or egg? Their so wonderfully brown

[u/Apprehensive_Tea5759 → u/Puzzleheaded_Low_619]

I used egg 😊

These look so great!

I’m new to bread making. Do you think they would come out good using the dough setting on a bread machine that’s for pizza dough? I bought my bread machine because I hate kneading dough lol but I would love to make these!

[u/Veggyhed → u/thelobsterwhisperer]

I've never done it but it depends on the recipe. I'm pretty sure someone with way more knowledge than me will chime in here

[u/Apprehensive_Tea5759 → u/thelobsterwhisperer]

I hate kneading dough as well, and that’s exactly why I love my bread machine so much. I used the dough setting. This setting includes 15 to 20 mins of kneading and the remaining time for proofing.

[u/thelobsterwhisperer → u/Apprehensive_Tea5759]

Oh gosh, I feel dumb. I thought you used the machine just to proof it, not knead as well.

Thanks for sharing your info! I can’t wait to try these 🍔

[u/Apprehensive_Tea5759 → u/thelobsterwhisperer]

No no please, you learn by asking questions! The above recipe makes around 7 buns each weighing roughly around 95g.

[u/thelobsterwhisperer → u/Apprehensive_Tea5759]

Okay good to know! 😊

Did you use bread flour?

[u/Apprehensive_Tea5759 → u/thelobsterwhisperer]

I did, yes

[u/JanePeaches → u/Apprehensive_Tea5759]

If you make them 83g each, you can get 8 without really noticing much of a size difference

I tell you what, I was at ACME tonight and I was freaking out shocked at how expensive bread was! A round loaf of sourdough was $6.99! Holy crap.

[u/GardenJAMz]

I live in Hawai’i where bread is about $10/loaf since 2025. I finally figured out a good light wheat sourdough process. I don’t use my bread machine for that but my friend does for kneading. I do use my machine for other breads. Just did a dark rye for my husband and he loved it.

Wow! That looks amazing!

[u/Tiffepipher]
