Have I ever told you guys how much I love my bread machine?
I freakin’ love it. And now that my stand mixer is broken (why yes, husband, I am going to mention it every other post until you buy me a new one) I really, really, really love it.
For this recipe, I took a regular bun recipe that called for 10 minutes of kneading (or stand mixing…), an hour of rising here, some slapping down, more rising, etc. and turned it into a super simple bread machine recipe.
These are very good. They’re a little denser than grocery store buns but I liked them better. The tops and bottoms also started to get crunchy after a few minutes but I threw them all in a Ziploc bag and it softened everything right up. So keep that in mind if you want soft buns.
