Onion Buns image

I was looking to put a spin on my Recipe #317538 and I came across this fabulous recipe. It was easy and the aroma filled the house while making the dough and while baking the buns. From KA: Why bake your own sandwich buns? Because homemade is SO much better than store-bought. These soft, golden buns feature a subtle spiral of dried onion, giving them incredible aroma and marvelous flavor. They're perfect for all kinds of sandwiches-and hamburgers, of course.

Time 2h25m

Yield 8 Buns, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup water, lukewarm (up to 1 cup)
2 tablespoons butter
1 large egg
3 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, King Arthur
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon instant yeast
3 tablespoons instant minced onion
1 egg white, beaten with
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional) or 1 tablespoon poppy seed, etc. (optional)

Steps:

  • **Water: Use the lesser amount in summer (or in a humid environment), the greater amount in winter (or in a dry climate), and somewhere in between the rest of the year, or if your house is climate controlled.
  • To make the dough: Combine all of the dough ingredients, and mix and knead them-by hand, mixer, or bread machine-to make a soft, somewhat tacky dough.
  • Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl or other container large enough to allow it to at least double in bulk, cover, and let it rise for about 60 to 70 minutes, till it's just about doubled.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly greased work surface, and pat/roll it into a 12" x 17" rectangle.
  • Sprinkle the dough with the minced onion, and press/roll it into the surface gently.
  • Starting with a short (12") end, roll the dough into a log, sealing the ends and side seam.
  • Cut the log into eight slices. A pair of scissors works very well here.
  • Place the buns on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, flattening them to about 3" wide. Cover them, and allow them to rise till they're very puffy, about 1 hour. Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Uncover the buns, brush them with the beaten egg white/water, and sprinkle with seeds, if desired.
  • Bake the buns for 20 to 25 minutes, until they're golden brown and feel set when you poke them.
  • Remove them from the oven, and cool on a rack. When completely cool, wrap in plastic, and store at room temperature.

These buns were a little too dense for my taste. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

These buns were a bit too greasy for me. I think I'll try using less butter next time.
