Soft-N-Fluffy Hamburger Buns

Ingredients

• 1 cup warm water
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 3 cups bread flour
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 0.75 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon vital wheat gluten
• 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast

Instructions

1. 1

   Place water, canola oil, flour, sugar, salt, vital wheat gluten, and yeast into the pan of a bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select the dough cycle, and turn on the machine. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. 2

   When the cycle is finished, remove dough to a lightly oiled work surface, and knead for 2 to 3 minutes. Cut dough into 12 equal-size pieces, and roll dough into balls by cupping your hand, with open fingers, over each piece of dough. Roll gently, with just a little pressure, to form dough ball with a silky surface. Place dough balls onto the parchment-lined baking sheets, and flatten each dough ball gently into a bun. Cover with a cloth and let rise until doubled, 30 to 45 minutes.

3. 3

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

4. 4

   Bake rolls in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown, about 12 minutes. Let cool on racks before slicing.
