Pineapple Sandwich Buns


These sandwich buns are delicious for ham and cheese sandwiches. They are fluffy and moist and the pineapple pairs well with the ham and cheese. I used cheddar cheese but Swiss cheese would be really good too.

  6. What kind of yeast did you use? I would like to make these, but I only have instant yeast. Will that work? Thanks!
