Directions
- 1Add 1 cup of warm water to an electric mixing bowl.
- 2Add 2 tablespoons of sugar to the warm water.
- 3Add 2 tablespoons of quick-rising yeast to the bowl.
- 4Whisk the mixture thoroughly until combined.
- 5Pour in 1/4 cup of melted butter.
- 6Crack and add one egg to the bowl.
- 7Add 3 cups of all-purpose flour to the mixture.
- 8Place the bowl into an electric mixer and mix for about 3 minutes until the dough is formed and slightly sticky but doesn't stick to your hands.
- 9Turn the dough out onto a clean counter and use a dough scraper to divide it into 12 equal pieces for slider-sized buns.
- 10Take each piece of dough, stretch and fold it, then roll it into a perfect little ball.
- 11Place the formed buns onto a cookie tray lined with parchment paper.
- 12Cover the buns with a kitchen towel and let them rest while the oven preheats to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, which takes about 10 minutes.
- 13Bake the buns in the preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 8 minutes until golden brown.
