  1. Heidi says:

    These buns were amazing and held up great with our chunky lamb burgers! My husband said he could eat these every day! Thank you!

    1. Hello Heidi,

      Glad you enjoyed them!

  2. Elijah says:

    Making these for my mom tonight

    1. Amy Hayes says:

      Hi, Elijah! Fantastic! Let us know how you like them!

    2. Nick says:

      Did you use baking _powder_ or baking soda? BP will rise on its own. BS needs an acid (cream of tartar etc) to make it rise. There are other ways (buttermilk etc with BS) , but using baking _powder_ is the easiest.

  3. Victoria Flores says:

    Did I do something wrong? They didn’t rise.

    1. Amy Hayes says:

      Hi, Victoria. Did you add the baking powder?

  4. Margaret Freeman says:

    These were really good! A keeper. Thanks so much.

    1. Amy Hayes says:

      Hi, Margaret! We are glad you enjoyed them! You are very welcome!

  5. Nick says:

    What does the flax seed meal do, please? It’s yet again something I have to buy…substitutes?

    1. Amy Hayes says:

      Hi, Nick. You can use flaxseed meal; however, the texture will be less soft and thicker.

  6. Pascal says:

    They look good but have not eaten yet. The did not rise as much as I would have liked and I used Baking Powder.

    1. Amy Hayes says:

      Hi, Pascal! Great tip! If you try using baking powder next time, let us know how it goes!

    2. Pascal says:

      Amy, I did say I used baking powder but the buns did not rise. So, I made them today once again and, once again, I used one tsp BAKING POWDER, but once again the buns did not rise much.

    3. Amy Hayes says:

      Hi, Pascal. The buns will not rise dramatically, like traditional hamburger buns because yeast is not being used. If you’d like more of a lift, you can try adding an acid like lemon juice to the recipe. The acid will react with the baking powder to produce carbon dioxide, creating air pockets and allowing the bread to rise more. Hope this helps!
