I was inspired to make this bread after Chef Stone of Reddish Chronicle posted his braided bread on his instagram page. I kept saying to myself "I can do it" and I did it!

It's my Vanilla Milk Braided Bread!!!

Ingredients:

½ cup warm milk

½ cup white sugar

½teaspoon salt

½ active dry yeast

2 large eggs one kept out to brush on top of bread

¼ cup butter soften

2¼ cups all-purpose flour plus extra for kneading

1 teaspoon vanilla essence

Directions:

  1. Add sugar and salt to the warm milk, mix together.

  2. Sprinkle the yeast on the surface of the mixture. Cover and allow to activate for about 10mins.

  3. Add in the egg, vanilla and butter. Also add the flour. Mix thoroughly till the dough is formed.

  4. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead till it is smooth and elastic.

  5. Cover and allow to prove for 50mins - 1hr.

  6. Re knead the dough. Cut and braid.

  7. Cover for another 30 mins. Coat with the egg wash.

  8. Bake in a preheated oven for about 10 - 12mins.

Enjoy your fresh made bread.
