I decided to keep these buns in the neutral territory. The recipe has variation options listed if you would like to make them savory or sweet. How do you like your bread?

These buns can be eaten as is with some hummus, non dairy butter(yumm), extra virgin olive oil, PB and J, nut butters, with soups and more. They are also very sturdy to make burgers. The size on the pictured buns is more for a snack slider. You can make about 4-5 larger burger buns with the dough.

Steps:
In a bowl, add warm water, yeast and sugar. Mix well and let sit for 10 minutes or until frothy.

Add the flours, salt, wheat gluten and oil or yogurt.

Mix with a spoon until well combined, then knead for 2-3 minutes. Use more bread flour if needed to make a soft not too sticky dough.

Spray water on top, cover with towel and let sit for 1.5 hours or until doubled.

Using 2 or more Tablespoons bread flour on your hand and on the dough, punch it down and knead for half a minute. Divide into 6-7 equal portions and roll into balls.
Place balls half an inch away from each other on parchment lined sheet. Spray water on top.
Sprinkle Sesame seeds or other seeds of choice on top.
Cover with towel and let rise for 15 minutes.
Bake at preheated 365 degrees F for 25 minutes.

Hello again
I’m please to see the manufacturers of one of the best brands of flour here in the UK (Dove’ s Farm) appear to sell all the types of flour you use about (they give them different names though – traditional names- such as ‘einkorn’ for example).
All however are wholemeal versions. Wholemeal wheat, wholemeal spelt, wholemeal strong bread flour etc. In fact I’ve never baked with processed refined white flours at all and don’t really want to start.
Are the flours you use above eg bread flour, wheat flour, spelt flour etc, the wholegrain versions? And what about your other recipes? I see you use all sorts of flour – spelt flour, rice flour etc but I really don’t know if you are referring to the wholemeal (wholegrain versions) or not. I won’t attempt to start following your recipes until I know as it will make a crucial difference to the results.
I see a few brands here that make white spelt flour, and of course wheat flour is easy to get as white or wholemeal (you say wholewheat) , but the other varieties I’ve seen, like sorghum, khorosan, triticale, rye etc are generally the wholemeal versions,
Thank for any help you can offer
Helen
Here is a thread I found about the differences. https://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/1765/wholemeal-flour-it-really-whole-wheat-flour
In general, whole wheat flour or 100% whole wheat flour in the US would mean whole meal wheat flour in the UK.
Depending on the country or brand, the entire grain is either milled together, or separated (into Endosperm, bran, and wheat germ) and milled and mixed back in to make the wheat flour.
Even if the flours that I and you use, are milled exactly the same way, say the entire wheat berry is milled, the wheat might still be different. There are several types of wheat and some can be local to the country or region. So there can be adjustments needed in any baking recipe because of that. For bread baking, you can adjust the dough during the kneading. There is quite some time and leeway at that point. If the dough is getting too stiff, add more water and incorporate it slowly. If the dough is too sticky, add some flour, a bit at a time. You want a smooth and soft dough at the end, which is also a bit elastic. A few tablespoons of liquid or flour difference from the recipe is ok.
Hope this helps. Happy baking!
