Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp Instant Yeast
- 1 Cup Warm Water
- ⅓ Cup Avocado Oil
- 2 Tbsp Maple Syrup
- 2 Eggs (1 of them is for egg wash)
- 3 Cups All Purpose Flour (up to 1/2 cup more while kneading)
- 1 Tsp Salt
- Sesame Seeds (Optional)
Instructions
- Add instant yeast and warm water to a bowl, and give it a quick mix. Add in avocado oil, maple syrup, and 1 egg. Mix that all together.
- Add in flour and salt mix and then transfer to a flat surface and knead for 3-5 minutes. If your dough is sticky add up to 1/2 cup more flour.
- Do not let your dough rise AT ALL.Divide into 8 pieces, and shape each dough into a ball. To shape into hot dog buns, roll each ball into a thin rectangle, then roll tightly while tucking in the sides, then pinch the seams to seal (watch video).
- Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and quickly brush with some egg wash and top with sesame seeds (optional).
- The only time your dough will sit (for 5-10 minutes) is while you preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Bake for 8-15 minutes, until golden. Allow to cool and enjoy!!!
Notes
- Dough should feel slightly sticky but manageable
- Can be shaped into hamburger buns, sliders, or sub rolls
- Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days
- Freeze for up to 2 months
