Note

Storage: Store cooled buns in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.

Serving Suggestion: These buns make excellent mini sandwiches. Fill with sliced ham, cheese, and lettuce, or try ham salad, chicken salad, or tuna salad.

Variations: You can substitute margarine for butter if preferred. Adjust the amount of all-purpose flour based on humidity and flour absorption; the dough should be soft but not sticky.
