Hot Dog Bun Vanilla Bread Pudding Recipes

BEST BREAD PUDDING WITH VANILLA SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk 3 eggs, white sugar, 2 tablespoons of light brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 cup of butter, and 3 cups of whole milk together, and gently stir in the bread cubes and raisins. Lightly spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned and set in the middle, 50 to 55 minutes; cover the dish with foil after 30 minutes to prevent excessive browning. Let the pudding stand for 10 minutes before serving.
• For vanilla sauce, whisk 1/2 cup of light brown sugar, the flour, a pinch of cinnamon, 1 egg, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, 1 1/4 cups of whole milk,and salt together in a heavy saucepan until smooth. Heat over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened and the sauce coats the back of a spoon, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract. Pour sauce over warm bread pudding, or serve on the side in a bowl.

BURGER OR HOT DOG BUNS

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat milk, water and butter until very warm, 120 degrees F (50 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, mix together 1 3/4 cup flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Mix milk mixture into flour mixture, and then mix in egg. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
• Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Shape into smooth balls, and place on a greased baking sheet. Flatten slightly. Cover, and let rise for 30 to 35 minutes.
• Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
• For Hot Dog Buns: Shape each piece into a 6x4 inch rectangle. Starting with the longer side, roll up tightly, and pinch edges and ends to seal. Let rise about 20 to 25 minutes. Bake as above. These buns are pretty big. I usually make 16 instead of 12.

HOT DOG BUNS

Steps:

• Stir together the yeast and 1/4 cup lukewarm (105 degrees to 115 degrees) water in a small bowl; let stand until creamy, about 5 minutes. Combine the flour, sugar, 1 cup lukewarm water, milk, butter, 1 tablespoon salt and the yeast mixture in the bowl of a mixer fitted with a dough hook. Mix on low until the dough comes together, about 3 minutes.
• Increase speed to high and mix for 8 minutes. Stop the mixer, wet your fingers and pull off a small piece: it should be shiny, elastic and smooth and not break apart. If it is not elastic enough, mix for a few more minutes; if too wet, add a little more flour.
• Transfer dough to a floured baking sheet, cover with a damp towel and let rest for 30 minutes.
• Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Cut dough into 12 equal pieces (each weighing approximately 2 3/4 ounces). On a lightly floured work surface, using the edge of your hand, roll each piece of dough firmly in a circular motion, curling your fingers to create a mold. The dough should pop up into your palm, having formed a tight, smooth skin. Cover balls with a damp towel and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Using your palms, roll each ball out to sausage shape about 5 inches long. Transfer to the prepared pans, leaving a few inches between each. Cover buns with a damp towel and let rise until almost doubled in volume, 1 to 3 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Whisk together the egg, heavy cream and pinch of salt. Very gently brush the top of each bun with the egg wash. Bake until buns are golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a rack to cool, then slice.
