Crescent rolls made with yeast dough and jam
Description
Perfect with tea and coffee. I prepare the rolls completely from scratch, meaning I don't buy ready-made dough, although that would greatly simplify and shorten the process. Making yeast dough is very easy for me, so I enjoy doing it. You can use any jam you like—everyone chooses according to their taste. Besides jam, you can use chocolate, or a mixture of nuts and dried fruits. Serve cooled or slightly warm.

1. I warm half of the milk and add the yeast, stir and let sit for 5 minutes. After that, I add 1 egg, sugar, salt, butter (melted), and 250 grams of flour, mix well and set aside to let the dough rise.
