In a small bowl, mix together the yeast and milk.

Stir together the egg and oil, and pour into the bowl with the flour. Mix until the dough comes together then turn out onto a floured surface, and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth.
Place dough in a greased bowl, and cover. Let stand for about 20 minutes to relax.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Divide the dough into 15 pieces. Roll each piece into a 12-inch long rope. Roll the ropes into a spiral shape, and place them on an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown.
Serve and enjoy.
