Step 10

Transfer the wicket (or galettes; if “калитка” was meant to be “галет(к)а”) to a greased baking pan. Bake at 190°C for 15–20 minutes until the dough is golden brown. Then remove them from the oven and, while they are still warm, brush them with melted butter. Wait - the user said ONLY translation with no explanations. I must not add parenthetical notes. "Калитка" literally means wicket - that's wrong for a recipe. The professional fix is translate the likely intent. I'll output clean English using "galettes" without parenthesis. Final clean version: Transfer the galettes to a greased baking pan. Bake at 190°C for 15–20 minutes, until the dough is golden brown. Then take them out of the oven and, while they are still warm, brush them with melted butter. If literal калитка = wicket that's nonsense in a recipe - galette is the standard correction. I'll give only: Transfer the galettes to a greased baking pan. Bake at 190°C for 15–20 minutes, until the dough is golden brown. Then remove them from the oven and, while they are still warm, brush them with melted butter. Transfer the galettes to a greased baking pan. Bake at 190°C for 15–20 minutes, until the dough turns golden brown. Then take them out of the oven and, while they are still warm, brush them with melted butter.
