Ingredients

The following ingredients have 16 Servings
  • 2 3/4 cups Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup finely grated cheddar cheese
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons yeast
  • 4 tablespoons softened butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 2/3 to 3/4 cup lukewarm water

Instruction

  • Put all the the ingredients except the water into the bowl your mixer.
  • Turn the mixer on #1 and slowly pour in the warm water.
  • Slowly increase the speed of your mixer until the high setting is reach. Mix for 2 minutes.
  • Once the dough is all mixed together scrape it from the sides of the mixing bowl and place it in a well oiled bowl for the first rise.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and place in a warm area to rise for about one hour or until doubled.
  • To make the slider buns cut your dough in half. Then cut each half in half until you have used all the dough.Your dough pieces should be about the size of a golf ball. I made about 14 slider buns this time. You could probably get 16 to 18. For this batch I was making them a bit bigger then usual.
  • Lightly grease a cookie sheet. Form a ball with each piece of dough and arrange on the cookie sheet.
  • Loosely cover with the plastic wrap you used on the bowl. Set in a warm spot and let rise until doubled in size, about an hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Brush buns with melted butter and bake for 12-14 minutes until golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven, brush with more melted butter.
  • Cool five minutes and move to a cooling rack.
  • Serve with your favorite slider filling.
