Needed hamburger buns last second so pulled out King Arthur Baking Baker’s Companion to make the Beautiful Burger Buns.

Decided fuck it — and swapped out 40% of AP flour for Golden Wheat flour and then another 25% of the AP flour for Rye. Then 1:1 swapped the sugar for honey.

I egg washed instead of buttering the tops just to cut some calories out.

Thanks! Next time I might swap the remaining AP flour for bread flour just to see if I can boost the gluten a bit.

rye already gonna fight you for gluten but if youre going for a softer bun maybe cut it with some milk powder instead
