Simple Hot Dog Buns Fluffy Homemade Hot Dog Buns from Scratch Ingredients: 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet) 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F) 2 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1 egg 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened 1 tablespoon oil (for greasing) Optional: 1 tablespoon melted butter for brushing Directions: In a small bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy. In a large mixing bowl, add the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture, egg, and butter. Mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Grease a large bowl with oil. Place the dough in the bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm area for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size. Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a hot dog bun shape (about 6 inches long). Place buns on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart. Cover and let rise again for 30–40 minutes. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake buns for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown. Optional: Brush with melted butter while still warm for a soft, shiny finish. Let cool on a wire rack.
