How to make Hot Dog Buns (Soft Brioche Hot Dog Buns)

Combine warm water and yeast in a bowl and let sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt.

Add the yeast mixture, milk, melted butter, and egg to the dry ingredients.

Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Punch down the dough and divide it into equal pieces.

Shape each piece into a log about 6 inches long.

Place the shaped dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each bun.

Cover the buns with a cloth and let rise for another 30-45 minutes until puffy.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Bake the buns for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.
