Solar cooking is great to reduce the heat inside your house and therefore the energy costs associated with everyday cooking. It is ideal to use the solar oven on campouts, picnics and boating trips. No need to worry about "no burn" areas again. In case of long term power outages solar cooking can be a life saver.

Crescent Rolls

Yields: 12 rolls


1 Tbsp. yeast
1 c. warm water
3 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
3 Tbsp. butter, softened
1/3 c. nonfat dry milk
1 egg
2 1/2- 3 1/2 c. flour
melted butter

Mix yeast and water, let stand 5 minutes. Add sugar, salt, butter, dry milk, egg and 2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Gradually add remaining flour till soft dough is formed. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl and let rise until double in size (about 45 minutes). Punch down and roll dough into a circle; brush with melted butter. Cut into 12 pie-shaped pieces. Roll starting at wide end, shaping into a crescent. Place on lightly greased baking sheets. Let dough rest 10 minutes (preheat oven at this time).

Bake uncovered in solar oven at 250 degrees for 40 minutes. (Bake in conventional oven at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes)
