However, if I plan far enough ahead, I will sometimes let the dough rise, punch it down, then form the dough into balls. When I replied, I must have been in the latter mind-set. It comes down to how much time you want to spend on them. ;) One rise, or two... they will be awesome!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09931350240548374803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728620799073621079.post-77854391959758614652015-01-02T13:56:14.162-08:002015-01-02T13:56:14.162-08:00I love your site, and I am finally going to try yo...I love your site, and I am finally going to try your bread recipes this weekend. For this recipe, are there two rises, before and after you shape them, or just the one after you shape them? The original instructions don't have two, but you mentioned two in an earlier comment about freezing (or is that just when you freeze it?).

All hamburger buns I've ever had have flat bottoms. If you want the bottoms to be softer, you can wrap them in plastic, or put them in a bag before they've entirely cooled off, and the trapped heat remaining from the buns will soften the bottoms.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09931350240548374803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4728620799073621079.post-36833890051382406612013-09-23T08:41:05.320-07:002013-09-23T08:41:05.320-07:00Homemade hamburger buns were a life saver for us w...Homemade hamburger buns were a life saver for us when hubby was out of work and I was only working a crummy job to keep us afloat.

It's a church-owned and operated facility, and the prices are unbeatable, because they are only looking to cover costs... not make any kind of profit. They are there to serve. Currently a 25 lb. bag of wheat berries runs $11.45. If there's not an LDS Bishop's storehouse in your area, you could try searching online and doing some price comparisons that way.

If you end up using all whole wheat, (especially with the white whole wheat) you will want to add gluten to help it rise. Also, you won't need to use as much flour as you would if you were using just AP flour. <br /><br />My favorite is to go half whole wheat half AP. Truth be told, if you make these entirely whole wheat they are going to be a little on the dense side. However, the difference isn't as big as with some recipes. I've made the 100% whole wheat version of these a few times, and they were fine, but yes, denser than my preferred half and half. <br /><br />Let me know how these turn out for you... especially if you go 100% whole wheat.

Also, do you have to alter anything else if you use all whole wheat flour (ie add gluten)? And are they really as good? I find the 100% ww flour buns I've made are too dense for burgers.

OR make the dough, let it rise, punch it down, then freeze, thaw when needed, form into rolls, and allow to rise on the pan before baking. I've done it both ways. Sometimes they take longer to rise because they are coming from a state of being super cold.
