Ingredients You'll Need
1. Flour
The key to a perfect challah is the right flour. Make sure to use bread flour for a lighter and fluffier texture. You can also use all-purpose flour if you don't have bread flour on hand.
2. Honey
As the star ingredient, honey adds a touch of sweetness to the challah. Use a good quality honey for the best flavor. You can also substitute with agave nectar or maple syrup for a vegan option.
3. Yeast
For the challah to rise, you'll need active dry yeast. Make sure to proof the yeast beforehand to ensure it's active and will help the dough rise.
4. Eggs
Eggs are an essential ingredient in challah, giving it a rich and fluffy texture. You'll need eggs for the dough and an extra egg for an egg wash on top of the challah before baking.
5. Oil
To keep the dough moist and prevent it from sticking, you'll need vegetable oil. You can also use olive oil for a healthier option.
Steps to Make Your Holiday Honey Challah
1. Mix the dry ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine 4 cups of flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 2 1/4 teaspoons of salt. Make a well in the center and add 2 1/4 teaspoons of active dry yeast.
2. Add the wet ingredients
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of honey, 2 beaten eggs, and 1/4 cup of vegetable oil. Slowly pour the wet mixture into the well of dry ingredients.
3. Knead the dough
Mix the ingredients together until a dough forms. On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for 5-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
4. Let the dough rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
5. Shape the challah
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 3 equal portions. Roll each portion into a long strand and then braid them together. Place the braided challah on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
6. Brush with egg wash
In a small bowl, beat an egg and brush it over the top of the challah. This will give it a shiny and golden crust.
7. Bake and enjoy!
Bake the challah at 375°F for 25-30 minutes, or until it turns golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your homemade holiday honey challah with your loved ones!
