Poppy seed croissants

Mix the yeast with the milk and let stand for 15-20 minutes. Mix with the flour, egg, egg white, sugar, and butter until you have a smooth dough (at least 5 minutes with a hand mixer). Let it rise until the dough has at least doubled in size. Then divide the dough into eight equal pieces. Form rolls or, if desired, croissants. Mix the egg yolk with a spoonful of milk and brush the rolls/croissants with it. Then roll the rolls in poppy seeds and sprinkle the croissants generously with them. Let rise again before baking until the pieces have noticeably increased in size. Then preheat the oven to 175°C fan/convection oven and bake the rolls/croissants on the middle rack for about 20 minutes until golden brown.
