  3. Add the egg, melted butter, and milk into the bowl, mixing until a dough forms.
  4. On a floured surface, knead the dough lightly and shape it into buns.
  5. Place the buns on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

Store any leftover buns in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. For longer storage, freeze them wrapped in plastic wrap for up to a month. Brushing the buns with an egg wash before baking gives a shiny finish. You can also add herbs, garlic powder, or onion powder to enhance flavor.
