Rich Challah (Braided Egg Bread), Many Challah breads either have too many eggs or just not enough This recipe has just the right amount, about 1 egg per cup of flour This recipe can also be done on the dough cycle in your bread machine and finished by hand Best of all it makes THE BEST French toast! Cooking time does not include rising time , Very good Challah recipe! My husband loved this one Made a nice large Challah
