These are DELICIOUS and I’m a huge critic of my baking. I made them for our burgers at a picnic and there was not one person that didn’t rave over them!

Could I use spelt berries for this recipe and if so what adjustments would I need to make to the recipe? Thanks so much in advance 😊

Made these today for burgers later this week and they turned out so good! I may have eaten one for testing purposes 😂 I used my kitchen aid for kneading and it took about 10-15 minutes to reach windowpane! Just wanted to mention for those who have a kitchen aid

Was there a typo in this recipe? Was I supposed to add the yeast with the warm water? And then add the rest later? I feel like they’re not rising because of that and I followed the recipe exactly.

No typo. This is the right way to do it. Unless you are using active yeast that needs to be activated first

Do you use a dough hook to mix and knead or the open paddle? I’m using a kitchen aid.

I don't use a KA for bread because I don't like the result. But if I had to, I would mix with the paddle and knead by hand

Also would be great for recipes to have grams of flour used. I think I used too much! 🙃

I used all purpose flour and my hamburger buns turned out so dense. What might I have done wrong?

Possibly used too much flour? Or didn't get to windowpane during kneading

Thank you. I did not do the windowpane test. I will try that next time. I will also weigh my flour instead of measure it. Appreciate the feedback and I am loving your recipes!

Can I make these ahead of time and let them rise in fridge over night?

I haven't personally done it. It should be fine, but also possible they will over proof

I only have soft white or hard red wheat. Would either or a combo of those still work for this recipe?

hard red will work but it will be a denser burger bun with a richer flavor. Which is okay! Just know that going into it :)
