Ingredients

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup warm water
  • ½ cup warm milk
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • Additional melted butter for brushing

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, warm milk, and sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
  2. Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the mixture and let it sit for about 5 minutes, or until foamy.
  3. Add the melted butter and egg to the mixture and whisk until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon or using a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment.
  6. Once the dough comes together, knead it on a lightly floured surface for about 5-8 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
  7. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  8. Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles. Divide the dough into equal-sized portions and shape them into balls.
  9. Place the shaped buns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between them to allow for rising.
  10. Cover the buns with the kitchen towel and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until puffed up.
  11. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  12. Brush the risen buns with melted butter.
  13. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown.
  14. Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.
  15. Serve the tasty buns warm with butter or use them to make sandwiches.
  16. Enjoy!
