I made this recipe exactly as written with no deviations. The taste and texture of this bun is fantastic! I agree that I will probably never purchase store bought buns again. The only reason that I gave this recipe 4 stars instead of 5 is the method concerning rolling out the dough and cutting out the buns, which lead to a flatter bun. I made 6 buns by cutting them out and they turned out flat and not really what I would want in a hamburger bun. The second 6 buns I made by dividing the dough into 6 equal portions and rolling them into a ball. I brushed them with butter and topped with sesame and poppy seeds. The second set came out just like a good hamburger bun should; light, airy, nicely domed and absolutely perfect. I made these for my infamous stuffed bacon blue cheese burgers and the buns I rolled into balls where completely perfect in every way. I also suggest using this same method to make dinner rolls with this recipe. Perfection!

These buns are wonderful! We grilled burgers and everyone enjoyed the homemade buns. I used my KitchenAid mixer instead of a bread machine. It was necessary to add about 1/4 cup additional flour. I baked mine for a total of 24 minutes, until nice golden brown. I will be making these again.

I'm never buying Hamburger buns again!! I exchanged 1 cup of the bread flour for 1 cup of whole wheat and it worked very well.

this is a great, easy recipe with quality result. I did use a large tuna can to cut since I wanted them for pork tendeloins. the dough is easy to work with , nice soft and tender.
