Ingredients

2 ½ tsp instant dry yeast
2 Tbs sugar
1 ½ tsp salt
1 cup warm milk
½ cup warm water
¼ cup salted butter, melted
4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1 Tbs water
1 Tbs sesame seeds (optional)

Steps

Step 1
1. In a large mixing bowl, or in the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the yeast, sugar, salt, milk, and water.
1. Add in the melted butter and 3½ cups of the flour. Begin mixing on a low speed until all of the flour is stirred in. Slowly add in the remaining flour ½ cup at a time until the dough is tacky, but doesn’t stick to your hands. The dough should be nice and smooth.
1. Transfer to a lightly greased large mixing bowl and let rise until double in size, about 1 hour.
1. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll into balls. Press each ball between your hands to flatten. The dough will spring back a bit giving you about a ½-inch disc. Place the disc onto a lightly greased baking sheet.
1. Whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon water to form an egg wash. Brush the tops of the discs. This will give them a nice shiny brown finish. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top, if desired, to make sesame seed buns.
1. Bake in a 400 degree oven for about 12 minutes, until lightly browned.
