  • 2 1`/2 cups warm water, divided use
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tbs salt

  10. Punch down and knead by hand for another minute or two.

  13. Let rise until doubled.
  14. Brush with egg wash (one beaten egg and a splash of water)
  15. Sprinkle with poppy or sesame seeds
  16. Bake in 350 oven until thermometer inserted in center reads 205 and top is golden brown. Cover with foil if browning too fast.
