Sourdough hamburger buns

These turned out great. I made them 3 oz each. The recipe is from Farmhouse on Boone, but I forgot the egg in the dough and my timeline wasn’t the same as hers. I made the dough with my active starter yesterday afternoon, let it sit on the counter until about 8pm, then put it in the fridge overnight. This morning, I took it out and let it sit on the counter. Around 1pm, I shaped the rolls, then let them sit until around 4pm. Baked for about 18 minutes at 400°. 

I’ll leave the egg out every time I make these in the future. They were the lightest, softest, but still sturdy buns of my baking dreams. So good!

I'd be very happy if I was served that in a restaurant. Can I book a table?

Lol! Thank you! They were so good. I’ve struggled with burger buns over the years…too wimpy, too bready, never how we like them…I'm tickled with how these turned out.
