  2. Make a depression in the center of the flour, pour in the yeast that has come up, add an egg, melted butter, salt. Knead a soft, non-sticky dough. Cover the dough with a bowl and leave in a warm place for 1 hour. Pound the dough. Sprinkle the working surface with corn flour, sprinkle the dough with flour and roll it into a layer 1-1.5 cm thick.
  3. Cut out the mugs using a glass or round mold.
