Un yerine yulaf ezmesi kattım, kıvamı bozmadı. Kabuğunu soymadan denedim, dokusu daha iyiydi bence.

Bekletme süresini atladım, tadı biraz eksik kaldı. Hamur bir türlü toparlanmadı, un eklemek zorunda kaldım. Buzdolabında beklerken kabuğu sertleşti, önerdiğiniz gibi örtmemişim.

Malzemeleri sırayla eklemeyi unuttum, kıvamı biraz farklı oldu.

Bu sorunu genelde erken açmak çözüyor, üzerini geç açmayı deneyin.
