Hamburger Buns

An easy recipe for hamburger buns. I made 1/4 the recipe for 6 buns.
Makes 24 buns
Ingredients:
2 cups warm milk
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
2 (0.25 oz) packets instant yeast
2 tsp salt
6 cups flour (at most)
Directions:
Heat milk, water, butter, and sugar until warm (will be used to proof yeast). Add yeast and let sit 5 minutes. Add salt. Pour liquid into bigger bowl. Add flour until soft dough forms. Split into 24 rolls 2 to 3 inches apart on greased baking sheets. Let rise 20 minutes. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes.
Notes: I used active dry yeast not instant so I knew it would take longer to rise. I let mine rise for about 1 1/2 hours. You can baste the top with egg if you want a browner top. Brad probably would have, but I am too lazy. I used only 1/8 cup less flour than what 1/4 recipe calls for.
Nutritional Info (1 bun):
Calories: 124
Total Fat: 1.5 g
Saturated Fat: 0.5 g
Sodium: 197.5 g
Carbs: 23 g
Sugar: 2.7 g
Protein: 2.9 g
They came out more like buns for sliders so if you want regular size buns I would make 2/3 as many as it says. For example, next time I will only make 4 instead of 6. Just multiply the nutrition by 1.5.
