Homemade challah bread |
Every holiday season, I like to make a few loaves of challah. It is so delicious- eggy and sweet! Here is the recipe I use; the only thing I do differently is I use 1 egg and 3 egg yolks instead of 3 eggs. Extra honey is always good, too!
Proofing the yeast |
Mixing it up |
After adding flour, the dough comes together |

I never knew bread could look so gorgeous! It is like a piece of art with that gorgeous braid, yum!
Dat glaze.
It looks better than some of the challah I've gotten at Deli.
Thanks! Sometimes I braid the challah dough into a circle, which also looks nice, but I like the loaves like these best. Glad you like them too :-)
