Hamburger Buns, Soft and Light Brioche Buns, baked in Air Fryer or Oven

 



I have adapted this recipe from Kitchensanctury to Thermomix.  With the warm weather coming and BBQs a must, this simple recipe will be very handy. Split, spray with a little oil and grill on BBQ. 

Lovely as a Hamburger bun but also filled with Prawns or Crab or Lobster, ( if you can afford it). A little Mayo and lettuce. 

Or grilled and rubbed with raw tomato and topped with Spanish Serrano ham. 


INGREDIENTS 

240mls warm water

3 dessertspoons of warm milk

2 teaspoons dry active yeast

2 dessertspoons sugar

360 g strong bread flour, white or Wholemeal 

60 plain flour

2 1/2 dessertspoons butter , or 20 mls of Olive oil.

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

2 large eggs, ( one for buns and one for brushing on top)

1 dessertspoons of Sesame seeds
