Get all-purpose flour into a bowl.

If the dough is sticking to your hands, sprinkle in some dry flour.

Knead the dough for about a minute until it's soft.

Divide the dough into small balls, smoothing the tops.

Cover the dough balls with a damp paper towel and let them rest for about 10 minutes.

Take a dough ball, dip it in dry flour, and spread it out a bit.

Roll the dough out to a thin layer, adding more dry flour as needed.

Spread oil over the rolled-out dough using your hands or a brush.

Sprinkle dry flour on top of the oiled dough.

Fold the dough in thirds, then roll it up tightly like a cinnamon roll.

Tuck the end of the rolled dough under and pat it down to create layers.

Repeat the rolling and oiling process for each dough ball.
