Dough

directions
Resting time is 45 minutes.
In a stand-mixer bowl with the hook attachment, mix together the milk and instant yeast. (If you’re using active dry yeast, make sure to proof in warm milk at about 100°F to 110°F). Add the sifted flour, oil, sugar, egg and salt. Mix on low speed, until the dough pulls away from the bowl, about 5-7 minutes.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface, cover with the bowl and allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes. The dough will rise to about two to three times its original size.
Grease and line with parchment paper two 6-inch round pans (or pan of your choice).
Portion the dough into equal portions (10 x 75 gram balls). Roll each piece of dough against a non-floured surface to create smooth, round dough balls.
Place five dough balls into each of the prepared pans, cover and set aside to rest a second time for 15 minutes.
Preheat oven to 420°F. Prepare egg wash by mixing egg and milk.
Brush the dough balls with egg wash and sprinkle with flaky salt.
Bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown.
