Step 1
1. First, prepare the dough. In a deep bowl, combine warm milk, a pinch of sugar, and yeast. Dissolve the yeast and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Then beat in the eggs, add a pinch of salt, and gradually incorporate the sifted flour. Knead a soft, not too dense dough. Alternatively, you can use ready-made puff pastry dough in this recipe for pumpkin and apple pie (for example, to save time).
