Directions
- In a large bowl mix together the water, milk, and yeast then add the 3 cups of flour to the bowl and stir to combine. In a separate small bowl mix together the butter, salt, and 1 of the eggs. Add the contents of the small bowl to the contents of the large bowl and mix together. Continue to mix until a dough is formed and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
- Flour a flat work surface and knead the dough for about 5 minutes then roll into a smooth ball. Add the oil to a large clean bowl and add the dough ball, flipping the dough ball around to coat in the oil. Loosely cover the bowl and allow the dough to rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
- Lightly flour a rimmed baking sheet. Punch the dough down and form it into 6 equal size balls. Lay the dough balls on the baking sheet at about 2-inches apart and lightly press them down so theyre roughly 3-inches in diameter. Generously sprinkle the buns with flour and set aside to rise for 30 more minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Beat the remaining egg in a small bowl then brush the tops of the buns with some of the beaten egg. Sprinkle the sesame seeds on the top of the buns and bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 15 minutes.
- Allow buns to completely cool before slicing.
