Bread Machine Challah Recipe
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- Machine dough, regular oven baking. Don't it is too large. The recipe is for 1 1/2 lb. capacity machines.
- 1 c. hot water (approx. 100 F.)
- 2 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/3 c. sugar
- 2 x Large eggs - beaten
- 1/2 c. vegetable oil
- 4 1/4 x to 5 1/5 c. bread flour
- 1 Tbsp. yeast
- 1 x egg
- 1 x yolk sesame seeds for sprinkling (optional)
Directions
- Place water, salt, sugar, Large eggs and oil and all but 1/2 c. of the flour into machine pan in the order prescribed by the manufacturer.
- Process on 'dough' cycle.
- Dust in additional flour as dough forms into a ball and seems wet sufficient to receive remaining flour. Usually, it takes all the flour, but holding some back as the dough matures through kneading results in a better mix. You will also notice which on humid days, the recipe will absorb a larger amount of flour. This is normal.
- Divide dough into three sections and braid into a loaf.
- Line a baking sheet with baking parchment. Place bread on sheet. Generously brush bread with egg wash. Sprinkle on sesame seeds. Place whole baking sheet into a large plastic bag (this is your proofer tent).
- Allow bread to rise 30 to 40 min (till almost doubled). Brush again with egg wash.
- Preheat oven to 375 F.
- Place bread in oven, reduce heat to 350 F. and bake 30-35 min.
