Increase speed to medium and beat for 2-3 minutes
Add ½ cup flour and blend with the dough hook until incorporated, add another ½ cup flour and repeat, mixing at medium speed for another 2 minutes until a ball of dough is formed, add additional flour as necessary. The dough should be slightly sticky and soft and pulling away from the edge of the bowl
