Celebration Braid
During the holidays, I sometimes make a couple of these golden loaves a day to give as gifts. Everyone in our family loves them any time of year. The recipe originated with one for Jewish challah, which I began making over a decade ago.

Made this today. It was my first time making any type of bread, and it turned out wonderful. The braiding description was perfect, and it was much easier than I thought it should be by looking! Thank you for the new recipe, I will be making it often!
Easy to make and it's so much fun to braid. But the best part is eating it as cinnamon toast. YUM!
This has become one of my go-to recipes. It's fantastic to make for a company meal - very pretty and impressive looking. I sometimes just make the dough into three braids rather than four, because I find that easier to work with. I also will sometimes sprinkle something on top like sesame or poppy seeds.
This is a fantastic recipe. The texture is a little dense with great flavor. It is very easy to make as well. I actually forgot about it one time I made this recipe, and it became huge. I baked it and it came out very light and fluffy. I use it for any family gathering or casual dinner. I have also modified it and separated the dough into muffin tins. It makes about 24 dinner rolls - perfect consistency for butter.
Followed the recipe. Wonderful. Very light tasty bread.

I used 1/2 c. wheat flour and 3-1/2 cups bread flour. Turned out beautiful-made it for Ressurection Day dinner.
