Okay, have pity on my buns. I tried.
I was reading Raising Olives blog,
(Kimberly amazes me. She has 9 children and still has time to blog about all the things they do together. I only have 4 and I have to blog at like 5 am if I would like a chance to sit at the computer alone, even then its a toss up if it will happen !! LOL!)
Anyway, there was a recipe for homemade hamburger buns there on her side bar.
They looked really good so I thought I would try them.
I just went all out healthy when I made them.
We are talking just whole wheat flour, organic eggs, honey instead of sugar you know going for the inner hippie in me. Would have added granola and wheat germ if I could have figured out how!! :)
But see look...they looked okay.
They just weren't fluffy like if I had used at least some bread flour.
I cut them in half then added turkey burgers, lettuce, tomato, homemade "secret sauce", you know... all the fix'ns.
They actually tasted really good.
But see, they just looked a little flat.
I am going to try her recipe straight through this time. No Aimie organic tweaking.
Here is the recipe from Raising Olives:
(These are her's down here and is what they were supposed to look like. Yup, see mine were a bit flat, but tasty!!)
If you have a few minutes to spare you should go see the other wonderful ideas she has and posts how-to's on. Really neat! She is having a giveaway right now for an apron. Really pretty to. You could win it and then wear it while making these hamburger buns!!! Love it!!

Hamburger Buns in 30 minutes:
3 1/2 cups warm water
1 cup oil
3/4 cup sugar or 1/2 cup honey
6 T. active dry yeast
1 T. salt
3 eggs, beaten
10 1/2 cups white or wheat flour (For company we usually use 4 cups wheat to 6 bread flour then add bread flour as needed, but this is wonderful with all whole wheat.)
Mix first 4 ingredients and let rest for 15 minutes. It should get sponge and get bubbly. Add remaining ingredients. Mix, then knead for 5 minutes. Preheat oven to 425. Roll out to 1/2″ thick. Shape immediately. I use the ring from a wide mouth canning jar for hamburger buns. You could also make child size buns. Let rise for 10 minutes. Bake for 10 minutes or until done.
