Instructions
- Gather all ingredients.
- Heat milk, water, and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until very warm, about 120 degrees F (50 degrees C).
- Mix together 1 3/4 cups flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a large bowl.
- Pour in warm milk mixture; stir until combined.
- Mix in egg. Add remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
- If making burger buns: Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Shape into smooth balls; place on a greased baking sheet and flatten slightly. Cover and let rise for 30 to 35 minutes.
- If making hot dog buns: Divide dough into 16 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a 6x4-inch rectangle. Starting with a long side, roll up tightly, then pinch edges and ends to seal. Place on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise for 20 to 25 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Bake buns in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
