Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and rest at room temperature for one hour.

Roll out the dough and laminate as described in the video, turning the dough 90 degrees between folds.

Whisk together flour and 1/4 cup water (60ml) until smooth.

Dust your baked pasteis de nata with cinnamon or powdered sugar if desired.
