Dave's Fav Bread recipe (use dough setting) Use for bread or dinner rolls

Jewish Challah

1 cup water
2 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons oil or butter
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
3 3/4 cup white flour
1 teaspoon yeast

Glaze (if desired) (or just brush hot, baked bread with butter)

1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon water
  1. Measure first 7 ingredients into baking pan.
  2. Insert pan into bread machine, select "Dough" setting & start
  3. When cycle is complete, remove dough from machine to a lightly floured surface. *Divide dough into 6 equal portions. Roll with palm of hand into long smooth strips. The pieces should be thicker in the middle and gradually taper towards the ends. Braid the 6 dough strips (problem---they don't show you how). Place on lightly greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise 30 minutes or until double in volume.
  4. (Glaze--optional) Beat egg yolk with one tablespoon of water and brush over bread.
  5. Bake at 350º for 30 to 35 minutes.

*NOTE---instead you may choose to make two regular loaves or dinner rolls. For dinner rolls (clover-leaf style, roll out three balls for each roll, about 23mm each, if you are making them with two, roll them a bit larger, about 28mm (about an inch)
