Gradually add the flour and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle.

Roll up the dough tightly from the long edge to form a log. Cut the log into 12 equal slices.
