Burger Buns

I love burgers and I have tried making burger patties at home..This was the first time I tried my hand in making the burger buns at home..They were too easy to make and we had it as a burger and also with jam..They came out soft and fluffy..Here is the recipe..

Ingredients (Makes 9 tp 10 buns)

1/2 cup warm water (100 to 110degreeF) 
2 envelopes  Active Dry Yeast or 4 teaspoons
3/4 cup warm milk (100 to 110degree F) 
1/4 cup sugar 
3 tablespoons butter or margarine 
1-1/2 tablespoons Minced Onions (optional)  
2 teaspoons salt 
4-3/4 to 5-1/4 cups all-purpose flour 
3 eggs 
Minced Onions or Poppy Seed, optional

Directions

Dissolve the yeast in warm water..Add warm milk, sugar, butter, 1 1/2 tablespoons minced onions (if desired), salt, and 2 cups flour and mix well..Stir in 2 eggs and enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 4 to 6 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled..

Punch dough down. Remove dough to lightly floured surface; divide into 8 equal pieces. Form each piece into smooth ball. Place on large greased baking sheet. Flatten balls to 4-inch rounds; cover. Let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 20 to 40 minutes.. 

Lightly beat remaining egg; brush on rolls. If desired, sprinkle with minced onions or poppy seed. Bake at 400oF for 10 to 15 minutes or until done. Remove from baking sheet; let cool on wire rack.
