Notes
Goes great with sweet potato fries!!
A note about yeast. Active dry yeast should be dissolved in water before using. Instant yeast can be mixed right into your dry ingredients. Using bread machine yeast means you have to give the dough two rises before baking. If that's all you have you can let the second rise be after the burgers are wrapped.
