5 c. all-purpose flour
1/3 c. granulated sugar
1 Tbsp. salt
2 pkg. rapid rise yeast
2 c. warm water
1/4 c. Butter Olive Oil plus 2 Tbsp.
Filling:

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water and set aside. In a large bowl mix the water, sugar, Butter Olive Oil, salt, and egg. Add 2 cups of flour and mix until smooth. Add yeast mixture. Mix in remaining flour until dough is easy to handle. Knead dough on lightly floured surface for 5 to 10 minutes. Place in well-greased bowl, cover and let rise until doubled in When doubled in size, punch down dough. Roll out on a floured surface into a 15 by 9-inch rectangle. Spread Butter Olive Oil all over dough. Mix sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over "buttered" dough. Sprinkle with walnuts and or raisins, if desired. Beginning at the 15-inch side, role up dough and pinch edge together to seal. Cut into 12 to 15 slices.
