Let’s talk buns. The hamburger version that is! I have the most amazing 40 minute hamburger bun recipe that I posted last year, but I decided it was time to find something new. I tossed around the idea of just adding sesame seeds to my tried and true recipe, but eventually decided on some simple onion hamburger buns. It takes just about the same amount of time as my 40 minute recipe and is basically no fail.

The biggest addition are these dried minced onions. You can find these in the spice section or baking aisle of any grocery store. I’ve been amazed at all of the fun ways we’ve found to use them! Toss them into your hamburgers, mix them into taco meat, or even shake things up in your salad dressings!

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 1/4 cup butter melted
  • 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 package instant yeast
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon dried minced onions plus more for topping

Instructions

  • Combine the milk, water, butter, flour, yeast, sugar, salt, egg and 1 tablespoon dried onions in the bowl of an electric mixer.
  • Stir until combined with the paddle attachment.
  • Switch to the dough hook and knead for 8 minutes or until the dough pulls from the side and forms a ball.
  • Place the dough into a greased dish. Cover and rest for 30 minutes.

If onions aren’t your thing you can actually skip that ingredient. I’ve also replaced half of the salt with a little garlic powder and loved the outcome. I love this recipe so much that I’ll be tweaking it a bit to create a few more fun bun options! You can store any extras in an air tight bag on the counter or in the freezer. Simply slice in half when you are ready to use them and you are all set!

    I am still wondering whether or not there is a whole egg that goes into the dough. You mentioned six years ago to a commentor that you were going to make adjustments to the recipe, but you never corrected it or stated whether or not an egg goes in it

      Hi there. I just tested this recipe and there is for sure an entire egg inside the dough. I have adjusted the recipe to reflect the proper instructions. Apologies and thank you for bringing this to my attention.

    I was making these buns and measuring the ingredients- it says one egg in the recipe, and then also one egg white. I know the egg white is for the glaze, but what about the other whole egg? Eek. Gotta make a guess as to what to do now!!!
