Don’t let the thought of yeast intimidate you! While it takes some time, these are not difficult to make.
Tips For Making Crescent Rolls
Knowing a few tips for bread making can make the process easy
Use fresh yeast (and check the expiry date on your jar). Expired yeast won’t work well. When adding the yeast to the water, ensure it is closer to lukewarm than hot. It’s ok to add a little more or less flour to get the consistency you want. If the dough seems too sticky, add a little more flour at a time until it seems just right. Get kids to help with the kneading! Every child should have the experience of making bread…at least once! Use a pizza cutter to make the wedge shapes. Roll wedges from the wide side first, and roll loosely. Curve into crescent shape after placing the roll on the parchment.
Most importantly: have fun!

To bake, defrost rolls in the fridge completely (on a parchment-lined tray ready to bake is best), then bake according to recipe directions!
