White Hot Dog Buns at oldfatguy.ca

My buddy was coming over for a meal of hot links. He likes white bread. I prefer whole wheat but friends are friends. So I made white hot dog buns for the meal.

I based the recipe on a recipe from Fleischmann’s Yeasts excellent site, http://breadworld.com/. In particular, I used their dough from the Beginner’s Dinner Rolls recipe and modified the method to make it in my KitchenAid mixer and then to make the dough into hot dog buns.

I started by mixing 90 grams (3.2 ounces) of flour with the sugar, yeast and salt.

I put the milk, water and butter in a Pyrex measure and microwaved it to 125 F. The liquid was added to the dry ingredients and I put the paddle on my KitchenAid. I mixed for 2 minutes on medium.

I changed to the dough hook, added the remaining flour and kneaded for 7 minutes.

I covered the bowl with a tea towel and let sit for 10 minutes.

I turned the dough out onto to a floured counter and cut it into 16 equal pieces. I took 3 of the balls and formed them into a log. I did this until 5 logs had been formed. There will be one ball left over. Put 4 logs across one side of an 8 by 8 inch cake pan that has been sprayed with baking spray. Put the last log across the end of three already in the pan and the left over ball in the space left in the pan.

Cover the pan and put it in a warm place until the dough has doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes.

I have done a video of me making these buns:

The Verdict

While these are not whole wheat, they are very tasty. They have a nice bread texture and are substantially better than store bought. Also, they are very easy to make.

Addendum:

This recipe has been presented on my community TV show on ShawTV:
