3/4 cup water, warm
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 teaspoons instant yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
2 3/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour

Steps:

To make dough; combine all dough ingredients and mix and knead by hand, mixer or bread machine - to make a soft dough.

Turn dough out onto a lightly greased surface, flatten slightly and divide it into 6 pieces, each weighing about 4 ounces.
Roll each piece into a ball. Place in the creased cups of a hamburger bun pan (or shape) and flatten gently.
Cover and let rise until buns have doubled in size.
Towards end of rising time, preheat oven to 375.

Tips:

Use bread flour: Bread flour has a higher protein content than all-purpose flour, which results in a chewier bun.
Activate the yeast properly: Proof the yeast in warm water with a little sugar before adding it to the dough. This will help ensure that the yeast is active and will produce a good rise.
Knead the dough well: Kneading the dough develops the gluten, which gives the buns their structure. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
Let the dough rise twice: The first rise allows the yeast to produce gas and the dough to double in size. The second rise allows the buns to relax and develop their flavor.
Bake the buns in a preheated oven: This will help ensure that the buns rise evenly and have a golden brown crust.
Brush the buns with butter: This will give the buns a shiny glaze and help keep them moist.

Conclusion:

These hamburger buns are soft, fluffy, and perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. Whether you like them plain or topped with sesame seeds, these buns are sure to be a hit.
