Substitutions and Variations

• Flour- You can be substituted for gluten-free flour, all-purpose, bread flour, or organic flour. I use the organic one from Costco and it has worked amazing for me.

Dust rolls with flour, or seeds also you can brush an egg wash on, or leave plain. Whichever you choose the bread with be amazing!

Make the Bread gluten-free by using gluten-free flour. Most gluten-free flours are a 1:1 substitute, but make sure to read the labeling on the back of the package to make sure.

Step 1: Activate Instant yeast: In a mixing bowl add 1 ½ cup of warm water (about 110F) and 2 teaspoon of sugar. Then sprinkle on the 1 ½ tablespoon of instant yeast and let it activate. How to check if yeast is active? It should become foamy when activated.

Preheat the oven to 450F.

Step 2: Knead the dough: Add in 2 teaspoon of salt and 2 ½ to 3 cups of flour and mix with a dough hook. Knead the dough until the flour is soft but not sticky.

Step 3: Form bread: Invert the dough onto a floured surface and shape the dough according to your needs. This portion makes 2 baguettes, 6 sandwich/ hotdog rolls, and 6 burger buns. Then place onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. This step is optional but you can dust with flour or make an egg wash and do any kind of scoring you would like. Let the bread rise for 10-15 minutes in a warm place.

Step 4: Bake: Place risen bread into the preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes. Until golden brown. Remove from oven and cool for a few minutes before cutting into it.

Expert tip

Make sure to score the bread after you shape your bread but before the rise. This will ensure that you get a nice beautiful rise on the bread with a precise score. If scored after it may make the bread fall a little, resulting in a bread that isn't as perfectly risen and scored.

Equipment

• Electric mixer with dough hook: Using an electric mixer makes the kneading so much quicker and simpler.
• Parchment paper: Lining a baking sheet onto the baking sheet is a simple way to ensure the bread doesn't stick to the pan as well as quick clean up.
• Baking sheet: A large baking sheet will allow you to bake all the rolls at one time.

Storage

Store baked bread in a bread box or in a linen bread bag or wrapped in a tea towel.

Can I freeze buns?

To freeze place in a gallon freezer bag and make sure to air-tight seal. Freeze for 3 months.

Yeast tips

Store Instant Yeast in the refrigerator to prolong the shelf life. If you put yeast in warm water and it doesn't foam your yeast is no longer active.
