We’re baking & dancing along with @jewishlyliz while she makes her weekly challah. What music do you like to listen to while you bake? Get Liz’s challah recipe below, or visit the link in our profile (@redstaryeast) for more challah recipes. https://bit.ly/3Sw8sXc ------ This is the challah recipe that I make every week! It’s so yummy, sweet, soft, and it vegan (without it tasting like it’s vegan 🤣😬) 1. Mix 7 tsp of yeast with 1 cup sugar 2. Add 2.5 cups warm water- (make sure the yeast bubbles, if it doesn’t you need new yeast) 3. Let proof 10 minutes - aka let it sit in the bowl for 10 minutes 4. Add 3/4 cup oil, 7 cup all purpose flour, and 1 Tablespoon of salt 5. Knead until it forms a ball and isn’t sticky anymore 6. Let rise at-least 1 hr. (I let mine rise all morning) 7. Braid dough- this recipe makes 2 large loaves Let rise 1 more hr. 8. Bake at 350*F until golden, 25-35 minutes depending on your oven 9. Slather with a mixture of half honey (agave if you’re vegan) and half almond milk to glaze after baking. Serve right away or freeze for later! I serve mine warm out of the oven for Shabbat. My kids look forward to it all week! #challah #yeastbread #vegan #redstaryeast #bakingwithyeast #lesaffre #baking #bakersofig #instabread #fromscratch
