  3. Brush the unfilled area with a little oat milk.
  4. Roll everything up from the long side and seal it, then place the roll in the refrigerator for half an hour.
  5. Cut the chilled roll into 1-2 cm thick slices. Place the snails on a baking sheet and brush the edges of the dough with a little more oat milk.
  6. Bake for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
