Form the XLB
After the dough has rested, divide it into 6 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin circle, about 3 inches in diameter. Place a tablespoon of filling in the center of each dough circle. Carefully pleat the edges of the dough to create a pouch, pinching the top to seal it.

Steam the XLB
