Everything Slider Buns
It’s warming up here in Utah & that means it’s time to grill! Actually, we have grilled twice already. The first time was March 2nd, 2013. We could not wait to uncover our grill & fire it up! The snow has officially melted & it’s feeling like Spring, & on some days it even feels like Summer! This is my absolute favorite time of year. Spring is so cheery & beautiful & long Summer days make me happy.
Anyway, this slider bun can be used for hamburgers or other fun mini sandwiches. They are great for BBQ’s, potlucks, get-togethers or just for snacking! They have that yummy “Everything” topping that I love on my bagels & it’s just as good on these buns. I guess I should have pressed mine down a little harder because they look more like rolls instead of buns, but the dough is phenomenally soft & delicious! It might be my new roll dough go-to recipe! We loved it! Stick around for tomorrow’s recipe using these cute little buns! You won’t want to miss it!
Everything Slider Buns
Ingredients
For the burger buns:
- 1 cup (237 ml) lukewarm water
- 2 ¼ tsp yeast, (1 packet)
- 3 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 Tbsp oil, (vegetable, canola, or olive plus more for greasing bowl)
- 2 large eggs, divided
- 3 ¼ cups (390 g) all-purpose flour, (stir, spoon & level)
- 1 tsp salt
For the Everything topping:
- 2 tsp dried minced garlic
- 1 tsp dried minced onion
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 2 tsp poppy seeds
- 2 tsp sesame seeds
Instructions
- Add warm water to the bowl of your mixer and stir in the yeast & sugar. Let sit 5 minutes, until frothy.
- Add the oil & 1 egg to the bowl. Add the flour and salt, mixing on medium-low speed with the hook until the dough holds together, about 2 minutes. The dough should clean the sides of the bowl. If not, add additional flour by the tablespoon.
- Increase speed to medium and knead the dough for 5 minutes. Then transfer the dough to a large bowl that has been lightly greased with oil. Cover the bowl with a damp towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, 1 to 1½ hours.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough in half and then each half into 8 pieces. A kitchen scale makes this easy: 1.8oz for each slider bun.
- Roll into rounds and flatten with the palm of your hand onto the baking sheet; placing buns about ½ to 1 inch apart). Cover with a damp towel and let them rise for 20 minutes + oven preheating time. Preheat oven to 350˚F.
- Mix all the ingredients for the Everything topping in a small bowl. Whisk the remaining egg with 1 Tbsp water. Brush the buns with the egg wash and sprinkle all of the Everything topping over the buns.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Store leftovers in a zip-top bag at room temperature.

I can’t wait until our grill is no longer buried in snow! I’ve been itching to get out and grill for the last week! Love these buns, they are perfect for all kinds of gatherings!
Jessica, where do you live?! The snow has melted here the past couple weeks & it is awesome to see the grass & feel the sun warming up!
your pictures are getting so pretty lately! did you get your new camera? these look soooo delicious!!!
Aimee, you are so sweet! Yes, I just got a DSLR a couple weeks ago. Still figuring out how to use it. I am very new to the fancy camera thing. I have never touched one before, but I think it is helping my photos. That is so nice of you to notice! 🙂
Just remember its the photographer who takes the good pictures, not the camera 🙂
Oh these look yummy! I am pinning so I can remember to make them – thanks!
Thanks Summer! They seriously are so good! They make your house smell amazing & I caught myself just snacking on them too. They are delish!
