Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Rise Time:: 1 hour
Servings: 8 Buns

Ingredients

Yeast Mixture:

  • 1 Cup Warm Water
  • 3 Tbs Honey
  • 2 1/2 tsp Instant Yeast

Dry Ingredients:

Wet Ingredients:

  • 3 Eggs (at room temperature) Or swap eggs for yogurt | 1 egg = 1/4 cup yogurt.
  • 1/3 Cup Water
  • 1/4 Cup Avocado Oil (Or olive oil)
  • 1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar

Optional Add Ins:

  • Dried Jalapeño + Cheese for a savory bun
  • Garlic + Herbs for a special flavor
  • Or just dried herbs!

Instructions

  • If you do not have a bun pan, just line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Prep your yeast! Combine the water + warm water (and mix until honey is dissolved) in a small mixing bowl or pyrex measuring cup. Sprinkle in the yeast and give a light stir. Set your timer for 7 minutes - be exact!
  • Combine all dry ingredients in your mixer bowl
  • In a separate bowl, combine all wet ingredients
  • When your yeast is done proofing (after 7 minutes), add your mixed wet ingredients into your mixing bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix until it resembles thick paste.
    Add in your yeast mixture and mix for about 2 minutes or until thick and smooth. **You might need to stop to scrape down the sides.
  • With wet hands, scoop out your mixture either onto parchment lined cookie sheets or your bun pan! (This mixture can make 8 total buns or 6 large buns).
    If making 8 buns, it should be around 1/2 cup of dough.
  • Spray the tops of the dough with avocado oil (or any oil of choice) and flatten / shape.
  • Allow Buns to rise for about an hour in a warm location (I typically warm mine in the oven).
    I also place cling wrap over my pan + a towel to help the rise.
  • After an hour of rising, bake in a preheated oven of 375 between 18- 20 minutes. If you made 6 large buns, it will be more around 25 minutes. (or until the tops are golden brown).
  • Allow to cool on wire racks and enjoy!
