You will see how easy and fast it is to make this homemade burger buns with whole wheat flour! And you’re going to wonder why you didn’t do it before! If you have children, it is a menu that you cannot miss because they love it! And what better than homemade, with our hands and with the knowledge of the quality of the ingredients that we use for it.
Let’s talk about the recipe:
In this recipe it is not necessary to use a mold to obtain the classic burger bun shape. Doing so is simple, although it does require a bit of patience. Because you need to make a bun with each of the dough portions, leaving them as smooth and round as possible.
With these proportions, they are enough to make half a dozen classic size hamburger buns. But this can vary according to the preference of each one. I in particular do not like high bread because when all the ingredients that accompany the hamburger are added, it is too high and it is a bit difficult to eat.
The whole wheat flour used in all my recipes is 100% whole wheat, no mix. Consequently the recipes use a little more amount of water. Due to its composition of whole grains, whole wheat flours absorb liquids more slowly and a little more as well. Although this differs by brand, so gradually integrating liquids is advisable.
About Cooking:
Cooking this burger buns with whole wheat flour only takes a few minutes compared to its preparation. and for this a medium temperature oven (neither too high nor too low) is used. Please note, do not exceed the estimated cooking time. Because when burning or roasting they acquire a bitter taste.

INSTRUCTIONS
- Boil the milk and let it cool down. Add the sugar and dry yeast, stir and cover. Let stand for 30 minutes.

- Make dough buns, about 100 grams each, or divide the dough into equal parts (size of a classic hamburger). Place on a baking sheet and smash with your fingers a little (just a little, not too much). Dust the buns with flour, cover with kitchen film, so they don't dry out, and leave to rise for 30-40 minutes or so.
- About 15 to 20 minutes before baking, smash the buns again with your fingers a little to degas. In this way the buns will not come out so high (although if you like that skip this step). Cover again with plastic film.
