  7. Shape dough and allow to rise for an hour or until ready.

  8. Optionally, baste with cooked cornstarch solution and sprinkle with desired seeds (sesame, poppy, caraway, etc.)

  9. Bake for about 25 - 30 minutes or until center registers 200 degrees. Allow to cool completely.

  12. Bake at about 375 F (190 C) for about 25 minutes
