POTATO BUNS (BREAD MACHINE)
This is a simple potato bread recipe, mixed in a bread machine, that makes one dozen hot dog or hamburger buns, or could be used for rolls. The crust bakes very light brown, and the bread has a very smooth texture inside. These are egg-, milk-, and soy-free, which is nearly impossible to find in store-bought buns. These freeze very well for later use, and pre-sliced frozen buns defrost easily in a toaster or microwave. Preparation time assumes 5 minute ingredient assembly, 50 minute single-rise dough cycle, 5 minute dough shaping, and 15 minute rise.

- To shape hot dog buns: roll dough between hands until roughly the diameter and length of a hot dog.
- To shape hamburger buns: flatten dough ball into roughly the shape of a hamburger.
- Place shaped dough on a large baking sheet that has been covered with parchment paper. This makes for very easy removal and clean up!
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Allow dough to rise for 15 minutes while oven preheats.

BREAD MACHINE POTATO BUNS
This is our family favorite bun recipe. It can be used to make hamburger buns or dinner rolls. Try using different flavor instant potatoes to flavor the buns. I usually use the roasted garlic flavor but buttery or three cheese flavor is also good!

Steps:
- 1. Put water, sugar and yeast in bread machine pan. Let stand no less than 10 and no longer than 15 minutes to proof the yeast. Do not omit this step as it will insure that your yeast is working!
- 2. Once your yeast has proofed,add the flour, instant potato flakes, oil and salt to the bread machine pan.
- 3. Set bread machine to the dough cycle, close the lid and let the machine do the work. Check the dough when it is about half way through mixing. You may need to add a tablespoon of warm water if the dough seems dry.
- 4. Once the dough has risen, shut off bread machine and dump the dough into a bowl sprayed with non-stick spray. Spray your hands with the non-stick spray and divide dough in half. Divide each of the two balls of into two or three pieces. You will now have 4 or 6 balls of dough. Divide each ball of dough into three pieces and form into a bun. You will have 12 or 18 balls of dough to form into buns.
- 5. Place formed buns on a greased cookie sheet. Cover with a clean tea towel and let rise until doubled in size--it may take up to 30 minutes depending on how warm your kitchen is.
- 6. While the buns are raising on the pan, preheat oven to 350. When buns have doubled in size, remove the towel and put the pan in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or light golden brown.
- 7. Once they have baked, remove from oven and turn out onto waxed paper lined rack or counter top to cool. Brush the top of each bun with butter and let cool. I use about a 2 tablespoon size piece of butter and hold it with waxed paper and just lightly rub the butter over each bun.
- 8. Let cool if you can wait that long and enjoy! I find that if my kids are around when they are baked, I have to stand guard over the buns so there are some left!
Tips:
- Ensure all ingredients are measured accurately using standard measuring cups and spoons.
- Utilize fresh, high-quality ingredients, including bread flour, instant dry yeast, sugar, salt, butter, nonfat dry milk, and mashed potatoes.
- Before starting, ensure the mashed potatoes are cold and firm, not warm or runny.
- When measuring the mashed potatoes, press them firmly into the measuring cup to ensure an accurate measurement.
- If the dough is too wet, add more bread flour one tablespoon at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
- If the dough is too dry, add one tablespoon of water at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
- Follow the recommended rising times and temperatures to ensure the dough rises properly.
- Shape the dough into buns and place them in a greased baking pan, leaving space for rising.
- Before baking, brush the tops of the buns with melted butter and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
- Bake the potato buns according to the recipe instructions until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the potato buns warm or at room temperature.
