Glaze

(it will take about 15-20 minutes)
2. Heat saucepan with milk, then put aside.
3. In a bowl, add sugar, warm milk & the risen yeast, eggs and oil.
4. Add flour to the mix, 2 cups at a time, until dough has come together.

NB:
- If you dont have the yeast packets, you can use the standard yeast. 1 packet yeast = 2.4 - 2.5
teaspoons of yeast (so if it’s 4 packets, that's about 10 teaspoons of yeast).
- You can use plain or high grade flour.
- You can also half the batch or ingredients if there's less people.
-Warm water from tap.
