Light Rye Hamburger Buns



Light Rye Hamburger Buns

Original Recipe: http://www.fromaway.com/cooking/light-rye-hamburger-buns

Ingredients:
  •     1 cup warm water
  •     2 1/2 teaspoons yeast
  •     2 tablespoons sugar
  •     1/2 cup medium rye flour
  •     1/2 cup mashed potato flakes
  •     2 cups (9 ounces) bread flour
  •     1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  •     2 tablespoons olive oil


Directions:
  1. Combine water, yeast, and sugar in bowl of standing mixer. Cover loosely with plastic wrap, and let sit for 15 minutes or until frothy. Add rye flour and potato flakes, mix well by hand, cover, and set aside for another 15 minutes. Add bread flour and kosher salt. Using dough hook, mix on medium speed until dough comes together and cleans the sides of the bowl, about four minutes. Add olive oil, and keep mixing until dough becomes smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes more. Cover, and set aside in warm place until doubled in size (approximately one hour). Lightly flour your work surface, and sprinkle cornmeal on a baking sheet. Quickly knead doubled dough by hand, and divide into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, and then flatten each ball; each disc should be about 3/4 as big as you would like your finished bun to be. Don’t flatten them too much. Place discs of dough onto baking sheet, cover loosely in plastic, and set aside for a second rise in a warm place.
  2. The second rise can take anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours, depending on how warm your kitchen is. Keep an eye on them; when they’re almost the diameter and height you want for your finished bun, they’re ready for the oven. Bake at 375 for 20 minutes, or until golden brown all over. Transfer buns to a wire rack and cover with a clean dishtowel until completely cool, before slicing and serving.
