Homemade hamburger buns are easier to make than you think! This quick brioche bun recipe takes just one hour from start to finish.

Quick Brioche Bun Recipe

water (105-115 degrees F)

milk (105-115 degrees F, whole milk is best)

instant (rapid-rise) yeast

sugar

salt

all purpose flour

½ cups white whole wheat flour

unsalted butter

milk

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Combine the warm water, warm milk, yeast and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer. Stir gently to combine. Let stand for 5 minutes.

Add the salt and egg to the bowl. Use the paddle attachment to combine on low speed.

Add both flours and mix on low speed until combined, then mix in the butter pieces.

Switch to the dough hook and knead for 8 minutes. The dough will be very soft and slightly sticky.

Transfer the dough to a floured work surface and knead a few times with your hands to form it into a ball. Cut the dough into 8 pieces. Shape each piece into a round ball and place on the prepared baking sheet.

Loosely cover the dough balls with a clean kitchen towel and let rest for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Combine the egg and 1 tablespoon milk in a small bowl, stirring with a fork. Remove the towel and brush the tops of the buns with the egg wash. Bake hamburger buns in the oven for 13-15 minutes, until tops are golden.

These fluffy, golden Sourdough Hamburger Buns will bring your burger night to the next level! Start the dough in the morning, and buns are ready by dinner.

Sourdough Hamburger Buns

(60 grams) bubbly, active sourdough starter

(240 grams) whole milk, warm

(2.85 grams) active dry yeast

(6 grams) salt

(25 grams) granulated sugar

(430 grams) all-purpose flour, divided

(42 grams) butter, soft

(6 grams) sesame seeds

In the bowl of an electric mixer with the paddle attachment, mix sourdough starter, milk, 1 egg, yeast, salt, sugar and 300 grams of flour on medium speed until a loose, shaggy dough is formed.  Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let rest in the bowl for 30 minutes.

With the dough hook, knead the dough for 7-8 minutes, gradually adding an additional 130 grams (or more) flour and 3 tablespoons of softened butter in small cubes.  The dough should be soft and slightly sticky, but pulling away from the edges of the bowl as it kneads.

Pour the dough, scraping the bowl to release, onto a floured work surface.  Clean the bowl, then grease, and place the dough back into the bowl.  Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp towel and place it in a warm, draft free place.  I like to keep it in the oven with the light on, but the heat off.

After 2-3 hours, the dough should double in size.  Remove it from the bowl and place it on a floured work surface.  Divide the dough into eight equal portions (about 100 grams each).  To shape the dough into buns, pull the edges of the dough balls into the center, then cup your hand around the dough and roll into a tight ball (see video).  Place the shaped buns onto a parchment lined baking sheet a good inch apart.  Cover with a plastic wrap sprayed with nonstick spray (damp towel may stick), and let the buns rise. 

After about 1 hour and 15 minutes, the buns should be doubled in size and touching each other on the baking sheet.  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Whisk 1 tablespoon of water and one egg in a small bowl, and brush onto the surface of the risen buns.  Sprinkle each bun with sesame seeds.

Bake the buns at 375 degrees for 20-22 minutes or until deep golden brown.  The internal temperature should be about 190 degrees.  Allow to cool a bit, then transfer to a cooling rack.  Wait about 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

Thats what i did, 6 hours left outside (its warm enough) then the whole night in the fridge. 4 hours out before baking, turned out great.

These are incredible! Buttery flavor and so light and fluffy. If you know what you’re looking at with rises and you sourdough, they’ll turn out beautifully!

Delicious recipe! I have a question though, can I use this recipe without the yeast? And if so, how much starter?

Delicious! These are only rolls  I bake anymore - everyone who tries them gobbles them up. Thank you for a fantastic recipe!

These were unbelievably easy and unbelievably delicious. I can't hardly believe how good they turned out! Go make them immediately. You won't regret it!

Move the dough to a flat surface and form into a ball. Place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover and let rise in a warm draft free area for approximately 1-2 hours or until doubled in bulk.

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured flat surface, divide into 5 equal parts, form into balls, place them on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet well apart, slightly flatten the top so that they aren’t too rounded.

I made these and they came out great. Warm day so I proofed the dough and rolls outside. They came out just as pictured. Light crust and pillowy texture. Definitely will be making these again.
