Ingredients

Challah Bread

Preparation

Preparation

1. Activate Yeast

In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

2. Mix Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, eggs, vegetable oil, and honey. Mix until a dough forms.

3. Knead Dough

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

4. First Rise

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours until doubled in size.

5. Shape Challah

Punch down the dough, then divide it into three equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long strand and braid them together. Place the braided dough on a greased baking sheet.

6. Second Rise

Cover the braided dough with a cloth and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes.

7. Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

8. Bake

Brush the top of the challah with an egg wash (beaten egg) and bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.

9. Cool

Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing.
