Fantastic Vegan Challah image

A delicious vegan challah adapted from an Israeli cookbook by Keren Peled. When I don't need to make this vegan, I just use an egg instead of the egg replacer and also brush with an egg for the glaze with, perhaps a pinch of brown sugar and soy milk or even regular milk for a dairy meal (we have a Dairy ONLY kitchen). You may also sprinkle with poppyseeds, add vanilla and/or cinnamon (I'm trying this for the first time today) or replace the vital wheat gluten with ground flax seeds (which I prefer!) This is our standby challah recipe for shabbat and chaggim and it's truly delicious (and I'm HARD to please)!

This challah is perfect for freezing. I slice it and freeze it in individual slices so that I can have fresh challah whenever I want it.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my challah didn't turn out as fluffy as I would have liked.

This challah is a bit more dense than traditional challah, but it's still very good.
