Directions
- 1In a bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast; let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy. Add oil once yeast is activated.

- 3Lightly coat the dough with oil, place it in a bowl, cover with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm area for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
- 4Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces.
- 5Shape each piece into an oval, pinching the ends to seal, then roll into an oval shape.
- 6Place the dough on a baking sheet, cover with a towel, and let them rest for 10-15 minutes.
- 7Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- 8Score a line lengthwise down the center of each bolillo using a sharp knife or razor blade.
- 9Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.
