Warm the milk in a microwave-safe bowl until heated, about 30 seconds. Stir in 1/4 cup butter, 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons honey, and the salt until combined. Let cool until lukewarm, 3 to 5 minutes.
- 2
Stir the warm water and yeast together in a small bowl. Let sit until dissolved and creamy, about 5 minutes.
- 3
Pour the milk mixture and the yeast mixture into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Add 1/2 of the beaten egg. Beat in the flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough comes together. Switch to the dough hook and knead lightly until the dough is wet and sticky but forms a ball, about 5 minutes.

Grease a large bowl with 1 teaspoon softened butter. With greased or wet hands, move the dough into the bowl and turn it to coat with butter. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- 5
Lightly coat a work surface with potato starch. Deflate the dough and place it on the work surface. Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces and shape into rounds. Cover one round with a piece of parchment paper and roll it into a rectangle about 1/8 inch thick with a rolling pin; cut into 4 wedges. Brush each wedge with a little softened butter. Repeat with the remaining rounds.
- 6
Roll each wedge from the base toward the tip. Brush a little of the remaining beaten egg on the seam to seal. Curve each roll into a crescent.
- 7
Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Place the crescents, seam-side down, on the prepared sheets. Brush the tops with the remaining beaten egg.
- 8
Place the baking sheets with the crescents into the cold oven. Preheat the oven to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
