Sourdough Discard Hamburger Buns Recipe Quick Sourdough Buns With Video
**Ingredients:**
– 1 cup sourdough discard
– 1 cup warm water
– 2 tablespoons sugar
– 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
– 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup melted butter
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
– Sesame seeds, for topping (optional)
**Instructions:**
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough discard, warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until the yeast starts to foam.
2. Add the flour, melted butter, and salt to the bowl. Mix until a soft dough forms.
3. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.
5. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
6. Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and flatten slightly to form a bun shape.
7. Place the buns on the prepared baking sheet, cover with a towel, and let them rise for an additional 30-45 minutes.
8. Brush the risen buns with the beaten egg wash and sprinkle sesame seeds on top, if desired.
9. Bake the buns in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
10. Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving with your favorite burger fillings.
