THE BEST BREAD MACHINE CHALLAH



The Best Bread Machine Challah image

This recipe originally comes from Kosher by Design by Susie Fishbein. I've been making this challah every week for the last two months, and it makes a delicious, rich challah. I don't use the bread machine method, making the dough in my Kenwood mixer and giving the final knead by hand, then braiding the challah and baking it in the oven. I'm posting this as a bread machine recipe at the request of Miraklegirl. BTW, I don't use all the water called for in the recipe, I usually add a bit at a time until I'm happy with the consistency of the dough.

Time 55m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup warm water
½ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon honey
½ cup vegetable oil
2 ½ teaspoons salt
2 large eggs eggs, room temperature
4 cups bread flour
2 ¼ teaspoons bread machine yeast
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Place warm water, sugar, honey, vegetable oil, salt, 2 eggs, flour and yeast in the pan of the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select Dough cycle; press Start.
  • After the machine is done, take the dough out, and place it on a very lightly floured board, punch the dough down, and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Divide the dough in half. Then divide into 3 equal pieces, roll into ropes about 12 to 14 inches, and braid into a loaf. Do the same with the remaining other half. Gently put the loaves on a greased cookie sheet, mist with water, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and let rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours in a warm, draft free place, until double in size.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a small bowl, beat together 1 egg and 1 tablespoon water.
  • Brush risen loaves with egg mixture. Bake in preheated oven for about 20 to 25 minutes. If it begins to brown too soon, cover with foil.

BREAD MACHINE CHALLAH I

Easy recipe for challah or egg bread using a bread machine. I use the light setting on my bread machine.

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     Egg     Challah Recipes

Time 3h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

¾ cup milk
2 eggs
3 tablespoons margarine
3 cups bread flour
¼ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast

Steps:

  • Add ingredients to the pan of the bread machine in the order suggested by the manufacturer.
  • Select Basic Bread and Light Crust settings. Start.

Nutrition Facts : Calories 184.4 calories, Carbohydrate 30 g, Cholesterol 32.2 mg, Fat 4.4 g, Fiber 0.9 g, Protein 5.9 g, SaturatedFat 1 g, Sodium 340.6 mg, Sugar 5.1 g

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will produce the best-tasting challah. Make sure your yeast is active and your milk is fresh.
  • Proof the yeast: Proofing the yeast ensures that it is active and ready to use. To proof the yeast, dissolve it in warm water with a little sugar and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, until it becomes foamy.
  • Knead the dough properly: Kneading the dough develops the gluten, which gives challah its chewy texture. Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise twice: Rising the dough twice allows it to develop flavor and become light and airy. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size. Punch down the dough and let it rise again for another 30-60 minutes.
  • Bake the challah at a high temperature: Baking the challah at a high temperature creates a crispy crust and a soft, fluffy interior. Bake the challah at 375°F for 35-40 minutes, or until it is golden brown.

Conclusion:

Challah is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a popular choice for Jewish holidays, but it can also be enjoyed any time of year. With these tips, you can make a delicious challah that your family and friends will love.
