Easy, homemade Braided Egg Bread recipe
Light, golden and easy, this braided bread is made with eggs, milk and butter to give it a rich colour and flavour, as well as a delicate crumb. Enjoy this egg bread recipe with your favourite sweet or savoury spreads, or serve it alongside meals.
Use Bread Flour in this recipe as it contains a higher percentage of the protein gluten which is ideal for making breads. This is readily available in the supermarket baking aisle. Alternatively, use plain flour.
The Dough can be made a day ahead too. Follow recipe up to step 5. Refrigerate overnight. Bring to room temperature and continue from step 6.
Flour moisture levels can vary, if dough is too dry, add a tablespoon at a time of water or milk until it reaches the correct consistency. If too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour and knead until dough firms up.

How to Make The Best Braided Bread: Challah
Braiding a challah whether it's three strand, four strand, or even six strand is truly the only part in the entire recipe that's slightly challenging. The rest of it is surprisingly easy. All the more reason to bake your own to have on hand for the best french toasts of all time, epic grilled cheeses, or whatever you like to use challah for. It's good for most things but it toasts up especially nice. Hope you love it!

Enjoy this amazing best Jewish braided bread as is on shabbat ( Shabbat Shalom :) ) or use your best braided bread as French toast: DELICIOUS!
PS if you are not familiar with Challah, here is a little history of the challah bread
Challah means the best ( see in Bereshit/Genesis, when G.od refers to Adam as challah ) but the term was used over time as bread.
Challah is used for the 3 meals of shabbat ( Friday night, Shabbat lunch and for seudat shelishi aka the 3rd meal). the challah bread accompanies the salads, fish and cholent/dafina dependin of the meal!
There are different ways to make it , some will add eggs and honey/sugar to make is sweeter . Usually no milk is used in a challah when eaten with a meat meal as Jews we do not mix meat and milk together.
When there is some Challah left after shabbat, it will be used as the most delicious challah french toast : niiuummmm!
As per the braiding, Some commentaries say that the braiding of the challah bread specially the 3 braids challah is a reminder of the 3 groups within the Jews: the Israel, the Levi and the Cohen and by interlacing them it is a reminder that all jews should be united.
Such a great reminder!
I hope this easy challah recipe will help you and create with your family amazing and eternal memories!
Until next time, stay safe, stay blessed and don't forget to frum it up!
Love

RECIPE:
***MEASURING YOUR INGREDIENTS WILL YIELD MUCH MORE CONSISTENT RESULTS FOR YOUR HOMEMADE CHALLAH***invest in a good numeric scale: you can find them for 5-10$ at Walmart, on Amazon,... totally worth it!
For the recipe the quality of the flour and it’s content vary from flour to flour specially in bread flour hence if you are using bread flour make sure to use a 1/4 the water amount that you’re going to add at the end of the recipe to make sure that your dough will be nice and elastic and not too wet
otherwise you can always add a bit more flour
2kg/12,5 cups ( If you take the flour from your bag with a measuring cup) but 16cups if you do the spooning technique ) bread flour
40g/ 7tsp salt
30g /7 tsp sugar
6 eggs
330g/ 1.5 cups oil
390g /1.5 cups WARM water warm water is around 95*F
proof yeast:
30g /2 heaping tbsp dry yeast
15g/1 tbsp sugar
475g /400 ml WARM WATER ( see note above)
If you do a 4 strands challah strands= 150-200g
if you do a 7 strands challah strand =100g
if you do a 12 strands challah, each strands should be 90g
for this full recipe, you will be able to do one 12 strands challah, one 7 strands challah and 2 4 strands challah plus one small 3 strands challah

CHALLAH + How to Avoid The Most Common Mistakes When Making It
Challah (yield: 1 550g/1.2 lb loaf)
1/2 c (113g) water, warm
1.5 tsp (4.5g) instant yeast
2.25 c (315g) bread flour
2 Tbsp (25g) sugar
1 tsp (6g) fine salt
2 Tbsp (25g) oil
1 egg
1 egg yolk
extra egg for the egg wash
1. Stir together the warm water and yeast and leave alone for a minute to let the yeast dissolve.
2. Add all the remaining ingredients and mix until the dough comes together.
3. Knead the dough until it has reached full gluten development.
4. Add the dough to a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in size (about 1.5 - 2 hrs).
5. Deflate the dough and divide into six equal pieces (roughly 90g each).
6. Roll each piece into a rough cylinder, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes.
7. Roll each cylinder so that it is larger in the middle and tapered on the ends.
8. Braid the challah.
9. Brush with oil to prevent the dough from drying and developing a skin. Let rise until a slight indent in the dough springs back slowly and halfway (about 1.5 - 2 hrs)
10. Brush with egg wash and bake at 375F for 25-30 min or golden brown.
