Ingredients

1 package Active yeast (can be regular - double the rise time)

1 1/4 cups Water, divided.

1/2 cup Sugar

1/2 cup Oil (canola or veg)

1 teaspoon Salt

2 Eggs

4 cups Flour

Preparation

  1. Dissolve yeast in 1/4 C warm water. (Water should be very warm to your wrist but not hot) Combine sugar, oil, water, salt and eggs. Add to yeast mixture. Then add flour. Hand mix - will be sticky which is ok. Cover with seran wrap or dish towel. Place in draft-free location for 2-4 hours (until doubled).

  2. Combine sugar, oil, 1 C water, salt and eggs. Add to yeast mixture.

  3. Add flour to wet mixture. Hand mix - will be sticky which is ok. Cover with seran wrap or dish towel. Place in draft-free location for 2-4 hours (until doubled). You can also let it rise overnight if you’re using regular acting yeast vs rapid).

  4. Punch down. Divide into 3 balls.

  5. Roll into circle shape from center out on floured board, (not too flat; diameter roughly 8-10"). Cut into pizza slices. Hand roll up from wide end to narrow to form crescent shape and place on cookie sheets. Let raise another an 1 hr - don’t let get too big. (For regular rise yeast, double the time)

  6. Bake 12-18 mins at 350. (Until golden brown). Remove from pan immediately.
