Everything bagel seasoning hamburger buns in 40 minutes

by 2 Comments

We make our own bread, biscuits, pancakes and all of our other favorite carbs, but we were still buying hamburger buns at the grocery store. So this summer I made the best ever hamburger buns and haven’t looked back since. We use these for cheeseburgers, epic breakfast sandwiches, and the best pulled pork sandwiches you’ll ever have.

I top these with a generous amount of everything bagel seasoning and that savory, salty, crunchiness goes a long way. Move over brioche buns, goodbye pretzel buns, these are going to be your new favorite. If you’re looking for this seasoning I know Trader Joe’s is where we originally found it, but now that we live in the middle of no where we’re a 4 hour drive from Trader Joe’s and it was a pleasant surprise to see this seasoning at Aldi! Aldi is the greatest isn’t it? I wouldn’t survive small town life (and these astronomical grocery store prices) without it.

If you want to make extra they store great in the freezer! I just toss them in a freezer bag and bring them out as needed.

This does use quite a lot of yeast, and that’s what makes the dough work fast. Surprisingly you don’t get any of that yeast flavor that you get from some recipes.

  6. Divide into 8 equal pieces; shape each into a ball.
  7. Place the dough balls on a greased or lined baking sheet. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, brush the buns with an egg wash, then sprinkle with a generous amount of bagel seasoning.
