These puppy buns are cute! They have several different uses and are not too hard to make. I used them as a hog dog bun and my daughters thought it was so cute and looked like the puppy was holding a bone. You could also cut the buns completely in half and use them to make a burger or a sandwich.
Puppy Bun
Ingredients:
- 1 recipe for rolls or buns
- black beans, drained
Directions:
- Prepare dough according to directions.
- After the dough is done rising divide it into about 10 pieces, the number of pieces will depend on the amount of dough your recipe makes.
- Roll each piece into an oval shape.
- Using kitchen scissors, cut a slit on either side of the oval to create the ears and gently pull them out to the sides to create a bit of separation.
- Place the buns onto a greased baking sheet and let rise until about doubled in size.
- Once buns have doubled in size place black beans on for the eyes and nose.
- Bake according to recipe directions, until golden brown.
