    2 3/4           cups  all-purpose flour -- unbleached
       1/2           cup  finely grated sharp cheddar -- or Parmesan (see note)

    1           teaspoon  onion powder -- optional but tasty
    1         tablespoon  sugar
    2 1/2      teaspoons  instant yeast
    4        tablespoons  softened butter
    1              large  egg
       2/3           cup  lukewarm water -- to 3/4c in drier climate or season

    2        tablespoons  melted butter

Note: or 1/3 cup King Arthur Vermont cheese powder


Hands-on time:	10 mins. to 15 mins.
Baking time:	19 mins. to 21 mins.
Total time:	2 hrs 29 mins. to 3 hrs 36 mins.
Yield:	6 buns

1) Combine all of the ingredients, and beat at high speed, using an 
electric mixer, for 2 minutes. To use your bread machine, put 
everything in the bucket, and let the dough go through its dough or 
manual cycle; skip to step 3 below if you're using a bread machine.

2) Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl or rising bucket, cover 
it, and let it rise for 60 to 90 minutes, until it's noticeably puffy.

3) Gently deflate the dough, and divide it into 6 pieces; each will 
be about 111g, a scant 4 ounces.

4) Shape the dough into balls, and place them in the wells of a 
lightly greased hamburger bun pan. If you don't have a bun pan, space 
them on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.

5) Gently flatten the buns with your hand to fill the bottom of the 
pan's wells, or until they're about 3 1/2" to 4" wide.

6) Cover the buns, and let them rise for 60 to 90 minutes, until 
they're noticeably puffy. Towards the end of the rising time, preheat 
the oven to 350F.

7) Brush each bun with some of the melted butter.

8) Bake the buns for about 20 minutes, until they're a light, golden 
brown, and their interior temperature is at least 200F, measured with 
an instant-read thermometer.

9) Remove the buns from the oven, transfer them to a rack, and brush 
with the remaining melted butter. Allow the buns to cool completely, 
then store airtight at room temperature.

Yield: 6 big buns

NOTES : Everyone loves the ease of no-knead yeast breads. This 
version calls for you to beat all the ingredients in a mixing bowl 
for just 2 minutes. From there, it's an easy path to these big, soft, 
cheese-scented buns, perfect for hamburgers.
