Step-by-step

• Dissolve yeast in warm water.
• Add oil, milk, sugar and salt. Mix well.
• Start adding flour. After half of flour is mixed in, add the egg. Mix well and then add the rest of the flour (I do all of this in my kitchen aid with my bread hook).
• After dough is mixed well, put into a greased bowl and cover with a wet towel.
• Place in fridge for at least 2 hours. Dough will usually double in size.
• Roll out dough into a rectangle on a floured board.
• Cut into triangles and roll up starting with wide end like a crescent.
• Lightly spray a pan with Pam and place rolls on the pan.
• Cook in a 375 degrees oven for about 10 minutes or until lightly brown.
• Serve with your favorite jam or just with butter! Sooooo good!
