All those wonderful cooking blogs that publish bun bread recipes to make delicious hamburgers. I always wanted to put myself into it. But as I’m mainly cooking french dishes, I thought it’s not very Frenchy all that. I revisited the recipe published on Rock the Bretzel which is worth the detour elsewhere and from that were born these spelt hamburger buns.
For the record … I go to the restaurant almost exclusively to eat dishes that I do not cook myself at home. But actually now I am cooking a lot of things and my kitchen is invaded by my fault by all kinds of kitchen appliances that are used to make many useful recipes like cotton candy for example! In any case, burgers is something I did not do. And yet I eat anyway at least once a week! I am a big fan and now I can make them at home too !!!
Spelt hamburger buns

Cause it is time consuming to make bread and everything else on a week night, I always have some buns on my freezer that I already have cut in two pieces, ready to bake in the oven for a few minutes to heat them up.

I usually include wholemeal spelt flour in my bread, about a quarter of the total flour. It gives an interesting texture. I’ve never tried with only spelt. Hamburgers not French? I regularly make ‘Bifteck Haché à la Lyonnaise’ or a variation on that (like including a little finely cut up smoked pork fat)
