For the Bread
•
(note: before you panic about making bread, I have done this recipe using Pillsbury Crescent Roll Dough that I simply roll out & pinch the seams closed and then proceed with the slicing - so if you don't want to make bread dough - try this shortcut!)

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon instant yeast (I prefer SAF Instant Yeast)
•
3/4 teaspoon salt
•
1 cup warm water

2 1/4 teaspoons vegetable oil

For the Glaze:

1/3 cup confectioner’s sugar, sifted
