Every Easter, I scour the Internet for bread inspiration. Carrot Cake tends to pop up regularly, so naturally, I made a carrot cake bread. Brioche is another common bread, as it features a lot of eggs, so I made a loaf of that too. But this year, I discovered challah, a braided egg bread that’s oh-so-pretty to look at and even better to eat.
Although Challah is a popular bread for Jewish holidays, it’s a fun loaf that you can make at any time. It has more protein than a typical white bread thanks to all the eggs, and it doesn’t need a standing mixer to make, so it’s a solid recipe for beginning bakers that want a more filling loaf.
