Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons active dry yeast
  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons warm water about 110 degrees
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 to 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • For topping
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 TBSP water
  • 2 TBSP sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Add yeast and warm water to a large bowl. Add oil and sugar; let stand for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, mixture should be foamy.
  • Whisk in egg. Slowly mix in the salt and flour. Continue to add flour until you have a soft dough.
  • Using a dough hook, knead in a mixer for 3-5 minutes, until dough is smooth and elastic. (If you don’t want to use a mixer, you can knead by hand on a lightly floured surface.) Do not let rise. Divide into 8 equal pieces; shape each into a ball. Do not let the dough rise.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place the dough balls on a greased or lined baking sheet. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, brush the buns with an egg was, then sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake until golden brown, 8-12 minutes.

Notes

Store buns in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Or, freeze for up to one month.
