Combine the water, yeast, and sugar. Cover and let sit for 10 minutes.
Add the egg, salt, and coconut oil and combine.
Add the flour a cup at a time until the dough pulls away from the side of the bowl. The dough should be elastic and tacky but not so sticky that it heavily sticks to the palm of your hand. Do not add too much flour!
Knead for 15 min (by hand or using a mixer). Let rise 45 min or until doubled while covered with a clean dishtowel.
Divide dough in half, and each half into 16 portions. Form into knots or breadsticks or roll shape.
Make the topping by combining all of the ingredients in a bowl.
Spread on melted butter and seasoning topping using a silicone pastry brush. Make sure each surface of the dough is covered by the butter or it will dry out.
Let rise uncovered for an hour or until doubled.
Bake at 380°F for about 15 min or until golden on top.
