Preheat oven to 400°F and spray a baking pan with baking spray.

Add water, oil, yeast, and sugar to a mixing bowl. Mix well, the paddle or whip attachment works better for me at this stage.

Once mixed, let it rest for 15 minutes to allow yeast to bloom.

Once yeast mixture has rested, add salt, egg, and flour. Mix until all flour has been absorbed. If the dough is still wet or sticky, add more flour 1 tablespoon at a time.

Change to dough hook and continue mixing until the dough is smooth. This will take 2 to 3 minutes.

Lightly dust a countertop or cutting board with flour.

Remove dough from bowl and place onto flour dusted surface.

Form dough into a square, circle, or log. Use whichever shape makes it easiest for you to divide into 12 equal size pieces.

Take each piece of dough and form into a ball, lightly stretching the top and tuck the end under the roll.

Place rolls, smooth side up in the prepared baking pan.

Loosely cover the pan with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap and allow to rest for 10 minutes. This is not an exact time, a few extra minutes is fine.

Remove towel or plastic wrap and place into preheated oven.

Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until the rolls reach desired doneness.

Optional, unwrap one end of a cold butter stick and gently run over the top of hot rolls.
