Instructions

In a large bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
Pour in warm water and add one egg; mix until a shaggy dough forms.
Add softened butter; knead the dough until smooth and stretchy (8–10 minutes with a mixer or 10–12 minutes by hand).
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size (1 to 1½ hours).
Punch down the dough, divide it into 8 pieces, shape them into balls, and place on a parchment-lined baking pan.
Loosely cover the buns and let them rise again until puffy (45 to 60 minutes).
Whisk the second egg with water; brush over the tops of the buns and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake at 375°F for 18–22 minutes until golden brown; cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
