Easy Bread Cones Recipe

8 Servings
Ingredients:
1/2 cup Water
3 tablespoons oil
1/4 cup Sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon milk 
1 1/2 teaspoon Salt
2 1/4 teaspoon instant yeast
3 1/2 cups bread flour
Egg wash:
1 egg

Directions:

• Pour the water  and milk onto a saucepan and heat to a scald.
• Pour this into a bowl (I used my kitchen aid bowl since I was going to knead it using the mixer), allow to cool to lukewarm. 
• Add in the  sugar, oil & salt; mix with a wooden spoon till well blended.Add in the 2 cups of flour & beaten egg ; toss till smooth with a wooden spoon.
• Add in the instant yeast and mix.Allow to sit for 10 mins uncovered. 
• Now, start to slowly add in more flour. I added 1 1/2 cups...a total of 3 1/2 cups of flour. 
• I used my Kitchen Aid to do the mixing.
• I kneaded the dough for 6 up to 8 mins. 
• Add a tbsp of oil to a clean bowl and place the dough into the bowl. 
• Turn over a few times to lightly coat all sides of the dough with the oil. 
• Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rest till the dough doubles in bulk, about 60 minus. 
• While the dough is rising, make the cones. 
• That is if you don't have any.
•  If you do ah, take a break.
  
• Make the cones out of card stock paper material or fliers that are a bit more sturdier.
• Tape the cones & then cover them well with aluminum foil, so that no paper shows.
• Set them aside.Remove dough & knead a few time to release the gas. 
• Now cut the dough into 8 pieces.Use a scale to make sure each piece is equal in weight(I didn't do this since I don't have a scale). 
• Allow the dough to rest for 5 mins. 
• Take each piece of dough & roll into a 36 inch rope.
• Roll the dough ropes around the greased 6 inch cream horn tubes.
• Place onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and brush with the egg glaze. 
• Sprinkle sesame seeds or poppy seeds(or both).
• Cover with plastic wrap. 
• Allow to rest for 30 mins in a warm environment.
  
• Bake in a preheated 350° F oven for 20 up to22 mins or untill golden brown(mine took about 18 mins).
  
• Place onto a wire rack and allow to cool for a couple minutes before removing the tubes.
• Fill them with your favorite filling and enjoy!
  
• They freeze very well.
