Ingredients:

  • 1 package (1/4 oz) active dry yeast
  • 1-3/4 cups warm water (110o to 115o)
  • 1-1/2 cups cornmeal
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp salt

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add the cornmeal, sugar, egg, oil, chili powder, salt, and 2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
  2. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  3. Punch dough down; divide in half. Roll each portion into a 12-in. circle. Cut into 12 wedges. Roll up each wedge, starting with wide end. Place on greased baking sheet; curve into a crescent shape. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
  4. Bake at 375° for about 20 minutes or until browned. Cool on wire racks. Yield: 2 dozen.
