Hotdog Buns per the bread kitchen.com

450 g bread flour
50 g sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp salt
2 tsp yeast
25 g cooking oil or melted butter
200 ml water

Place water, oil, sugar, salt, and 1 egg slightly beaten with 1additional egg yolk ( save egg white for egg wash just before baking) in bread machine. Add flour, then yeast. Use dough setting on bread machine. When bread machine is done, place dough on a floured counter and shape into a nice flattened circle. Watch video on YouTube to see how to finish the rolls. Divide dough evenly into 8 smaller balls. Elongate a ball of dough and roll out with a rolling pin until it is the length of a hotdog roll and the width of about 5 inches. Fold dough into thirds "hotdog" style, tuck under ends, and place of lightly greased baking sheet. Repeat with other balls of dough to create two rows of 4 rolls on the sheet. Cover with waxed paper and let rise about 1 hour until rolls touch. Beat eggs white with a small amount of water to create an egg wash. Brush egg wash on the tops of the hotdog buns. Bake at 375 for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
