Wow! Awesome! These are so good - I will (barring moments of great laziness) Never buy store bought buns again! I made these to sandwich Paula Deen's Crab Cakes from the Food Network website. Delish! Thanks :)<br/><br/>ETA: I've made these a million times now and they're wonderful! Today I was halfway thru making them & realized I was out of eggs, so I added an extra 1/2 tsp yeast, 2 tbs of butter & a tbs of canola oil. They turned out great!

These were great! I don't have a bread machine, so I had to adapt for my Kitchen aid mixer. I added the yeast to the warm milk, then combined dry ingredients in another bowl. I then added the wet ingredients including the milk mixture to the kitchen aid bowl and mixed it together. I kneaded it at the number 2 setting for about 2 minutes until the dough pulled away from the bowl, but it was very sticky. I put it in an oiled bowl to rise. Once doubled, I punched it down and let it rise again. After that point I followed the directions in the recipe.

This recipe is wonderful. Everyone raved about how good these breads tasted. I tried to cut out circles like suggested but they all came out to small and thin. I made a second batch and simply cut the dough in 12 pieces and rolled each in to a ball and flattened them out a bit. The second batch came out PERFECT. I will make these again and again!!!!!!

OMG, these turned out sooooo good and so much better than store bought, I'll never buy them again. Using the bread machine made it easy and the results - Wow!! I did brush mine before baking with an egg white and top with toasted sesame seeds, the inside of these came out pillowy soft, but still firm enough to stand up to all our hamburger fixings. As I said, NEVER buy store bought again

I followed other users' suggestions and substituted honey for the sugar. I also used about 3 1/3 cups unbleached, enriched flour with about 10% protein content, seasoned salt instead of regular, and 1/4 tsp onion powder. The crumb is light and chewy. The bun overall is ever-so-slightly sweet and super duper yummy!
