Instructions

  1. Prepare a smooth yeast dough from the dough ingredients. Everyone has their preferred method.
  2. Cover it with a plastic bag and let it rise for about 30 minutes.
  3. Then knead again well and divide the dough into 5 parts. 3 of them a little larger and 2 smaller parts.

  7. Put the whole thing on a baking sheet and cover again for about 15 minutes.
  8. In the meantime, heat up the oven.
