    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1 1/4           cups  lukewarm water -- *See Note, to 1 1/2C
    1              large  egg
    2        tablespoons  butter
    1 1/4      teaspoons  salt
    2        tablespoons  sugar
       1/4           cup  Baker's Special Dry Milk
    3        tablespoons  potato flour -- or 1/3 cup dried potato flakes
       1/2           cup  Hi-maize Fiber -- or substitute whole wheat flour
    3               cups  King Arthur White Whole Wheat Flour
    1         tablespoon  vital wheat gluten -- optional; for better rise
    2 1/4      teaspoons  instant yeast

*Note: Start with 1 1/4 cups water, adding more if necessary to make 
a soft, smooth dough.

Note: This recipe calls for a special pan, our New England hotdog bun pan.

Hands-on time:	15 mins. to 25 mins.
Baking time:	25 mins. to 30 mins.
Total time:	3 hrs 10 mins. to 4 hrs 15 mins.

Combine all of the ingredients, and mix and knead them - by hand, 
mixer, or bread machine - to form a smooth, supple dough.

Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover the bowl, and 
allow the dough to rise until it's puffy though not necessarily 
doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly greased or floured work surface. 
Shape it into a 6" x 15" rectangle, and place it in a lightly greased 
New England hotdog bun pan

Grease the bottom of a clean baking sheet and place it on top of the 
pan so the rising dough will fill the pan evenly.

Let the dough rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until it's almost filled the pan.

Preheat your oven to 375F.

With the baking sheet still on top, bake the buns for 25 minutes.

Remove the baking sheet and bake 5 minutes longer, to brown the buns, 
if necessary.

Remove from the oven, cool for 5 minutes, then turn the buns out of 
the pan to cool completely on a rack.

When completely cool, slice each bun down the middle horizontally, 
without cutting through the bottom; then separate into individual buns.

Yield: 10 buns.
Serving Size: 1 bun

tips from our bakers:
If you don't have a hotdog bun pan, divide the dough into 10 pieces 
and shape into oval buns by hand. Or make dinner rolls: Divide the 
risen dough into 16 pieces, shape them into balls, place in a lightly 
greased 9" x 13" pan, cover, let rise, and bake in a preheated 350F 
oven for about 22 to 25 minutes, until golden brown.

Yield: 16 rolls.
