Step 3: Put dough on a baking tray

Now all 3 types of dough, with a spoon, are alternately spread on a baking tray and then baked at medium heat for about 25 minutes.

Then lightly scrape the cake in the middle after 15 minutes and bake for up to 45 minutes. With a stick in the middle of the cake, when no more dough sticks to it, the cake can be removed from the oven.
