Challah on a sunday
Here is Grandma Rosies Challah, my braiding is very very rusty.
I included a quarter in the picture to convey size, this challah is big at 2kg. Next time I'll increase the amount of sugar by 50% since I prefer them sweeter. I'll also decrease the size and make 1/2 rolls and 2 smaller loaves.

For her recipe you can visit the site below.

Thanks for looking.





If you like a sweeter challah, you might like Beth Hensperger's Sweet Vanilla Challah.

What a beautiful loaf! I think the braiding looks great!
very nice loaf. Recipe looks good too. c
I love to bake and I am not a professional, just a crazy lady who loves to preserve food, bake and try new recipes. This is my Challah "egg bread". I sometimes use raisins and cinnamon and add honey to egg wash...Is this how it's suppose to look? It tastes great!~Lynn
