Mix the water, yeast, and all-purpose flour in a bowl
Let it sit in a warm place for 10 minutes

Add the egg, butter, and yeast mixture
Use a wooden spoon to incorporate the flour into the ingredients until a soft dough forms
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead slightly until smooth and free of sticks
Transfer the dough to a greased bowl and rotate it so that all sides are coated with butter
Cover with plastic wrap
Allow the dough to rise to double its original volume (about 45 minutes)
Gently push down on the dough with your hands and let it rest for another 15 minutes before baking.
