Quick Buns

By: Amber Grangroth

Fresh buns are delicious and so cheap to make. And look at how beautiful they are! You can whip them up and have them out of the oven in about an hour. There’s no excuse not to make them!
These quick buns are just hardy enough to hold a heap of sloppy joe or pulled pork. Top with roast beef for a French dip or plop a burger and fixings on top! Or simply slather with butter alongside any dinner!
They are perfect filled with meat and cheese for an easy lunch to pack for work or school.
Be sure to eat one hot from the oven spread with butter and jam!
