Easter Bread

Ingredints:

1. All Purpose Flour – about 4 cups

2. Sugar – 1/2 cup

3. Yeast – 2 tsp.

4. Egg – 1 midium

5. Vanilla – 1tsp.

6. Milk – 3/4 cup (lukewarm)

7. Butter – 1/4 cup, melted

8. A little oil – I used olive oil     

Egg Wash:

 1 egg + a little milk

Add the ingredients in the order they are listed and make a soft dough. Coat the dough in oil and let it rise overnight. The next day, make three logs and shape them into a braid. Let it rise again about 30min to an hour. Before putting it in the oven, spread egg wash all over the bread and bake in a preheated oven at 400° for about 25-30min. 

Note:

  • You can add raisins soaked in rum for 20-30min, like I did. I eyeballed the amount. You can also add anything else you like in that kind of recipe.
  • Depending on your oven, it may take less or more time to bake it.
