Eggless Burger Buns

Last Modified: August 4, 2020

Oh boy! Oh boy! What challenge was it to bake these beautiful eggless burger buns. Not that the recipe was challenging. But the weather Gods dint favour me much and the yeast fella turned out to be one crafty guy who just wouldnt budge. All was well in the bread heaven when i began the process of making these buns. Only later, the yeast guy started acting up. After almost 4 trials of proofing the yeast, i was about to accept defeat. And then some brainwave hit me and i turned to my most faithful and unfailing friend, Google. On googling, i found that yeast not only needs warmth but also food to froth up. Food as in sugar. The recipe that i referred to in the beginning to make these buns dint call for sugar and since i was using Instant Yeast, i think my inner Goddess kicked up her confidence a notch too much. Anyway, the yeast guy became friendly once i gave him what he needed. Anyway, all became well very soon and i succeeded in making them. Perfect for lil bites to be served at a party. Since i made two batches of the dough, i made mini burger buns with one batch and the normal ones too. I ll share with you all the recipe requirements for those mini burger buns that i made.



Recipe For Mini Burger Buns
( Burger Buns perfect for a party)

Mixing and Kneading Time: 15 mins
Raising Time: 2 hours for the first rise
                       1 hour for the first rise
Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 12 to 15 mins
Baking Temperature: 180 C
Yields 15 small buns

Ingredients For Burger Buns:

All Purpose Flour 1.75 c
Instant Yeast or Active Dried Yeast 1 tbsp
Curd ¼ cup
Baking Soda ¼ tsp
Butter 2 tablespoon melted
Sugar 2 tbsp
Salt ½ tsp
Warm Water ⅓ cup to ½ cup
Milk for brushing
Sesame seeds for topping

Directions:
Begin proofing the yeast with ⅓ cup of warm water.
Mix yeast and sugar in the warm water and set aside for 10 mins or until it froths up.
In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, baking soda and salt and combine well.
Make a well in  the flour.
Now, add the proofed yeast, curd, melted butter and mix the dough.
Knead to get a smooth soft dough. Takes about 7 to 8 mins.
Once done, transfer to a greased bowl and cover with cling wrap or a damp kitchen towel and let it rise until double in volume. Takes anywhere between 1 hour to 2 hours depending on the weather.
Once risen, punch the dough and divide the dough into 15 parts and shape them into rounds.
Place them about 1 inch apart on a baking tray  lined with 2 to 3 layers of parchment paper or tin foil and cover them with a damp towel and let  them rise until double. Again takes 45 mins to 1 hour depending on the weather.

Towards the end of the second rise, preheat oven to 180 c.

Once the rounds have risen, brush them with milk and top them with sesame seeds and bake for 12 to 15 mins or until tops are golden.
Once baked, remove and cool completely.


Enjoy with your favorite relish and some cucumbers and tomatoes in between or enjoy them as they are.

    Yeast does tend to play hide and seek with us. But despite all the woes the buns are so perfect Anu.
