Whole Wheat Buns

Everyone has a recipe for homemade buns and this is one I tweaked over time and changed a million times to suite my bread needs! These buns are thick and wholesome and everyone loves them!

Ingredients:

1 tbsp active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1/3 cup oil
1/4 cup turbinado sugar
2 tsp Ener-G egg Replacer mixed with 2 tbsp warm water
1 tsp sea salt
3 1/2 cups all-purpose whole wheat flour


Directions:

I use my bread machine to do all the mixing for me. So, place the yeast and warm water at the bottom of the bread machine. Stir in the oil and sugar, and let the mixture rest for 5 minutes.

Add the mixed Ener-G egg Replacer, salt and flour into the bread machine and set on the dough setting. Wait until it forms a soft dough. If kneading by hand, knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.

Divide the dough into 8 pieces, shaping into round circles.

Cover the dough with a towel and let them sit at least 10 minutes. In the mean time preheat your oven to 425F.

Bake for about 10 minutes or until nice and golden brown.
