Ingredients
Instructions
- Soften yeast in warm water in a mixing bowl.

- Add sugar, shortening, salt, egg, and strained soup to the softened yeast.
- Gradually add flour to form a soft dough, beating well.
- Use a mixer for the first additions of flour.
- Cover the dough.
- Let rise in a warm place (85° to 90°F) until light and doubled in size, about 45 to 60 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding finely chopped onions or garlic to the dough. If you don't have condensed onion soup, you can substitute with onion powder mixed with broth. If you're looking for a lighter option, you can replace some of the flour with whole wheat flour. Always keep an eye on the dough during the rising process to ensure it doesn't overproof.

Pair with crispy fries or a refreshing salad for a complete meal. For a sweet treat, finish off with Nana Mccann'S Chocolate Sauce drizzled over ice cream for dessert.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat the dough, let it come to room temperature before shaping and baking. If you have cooked burgers, keep them in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 4 days, and reheat them gently in a skillet or microwave.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of soup instead of onion?
Yes, you can experiment with different soups such as cream of mushroom or chicken soup. Each will impart a unique flavor to the dough, giving your burger buns a creative twist.
What can I do if the dough doesn't rise?
If your dough isn't rising, it might be due to inactive yeast or the environment being too cold. Ensure your yeast is fresh and try placing the dough in a warmer location, like an oven with the light on, to encourage rising.
Can I freeze the burger buns after baking?
Absolutely! Once cooled, wrap the buns tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, thaw at room temperature and warm in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
