Braid Bread

This is a recipe for braided bread that was given to me by a friend. Super easy, makes a lot and it tastes really good! This is in the breads category.

Ingredients:

7 cups of flour

2 packets of yeast

2 tsp salt

1 stick of butter

2 2/3 cups of milk

Instructions:

In a bowl put flour, and make a well in the middle of the flour, put yeast in the middle and on top of the well put the salt.

In a saucepan, melt butter. Add milk. Heat until hot enough to activate yeast. Pour milk into well, and mix. Knead for 10 minutes. Let it rise for 1 hour.

Separate and put in either loaf pans or you can braid some together.

On top brush it with and egg yolk.

Bake 35-45 minutes on 390 degrees until golden brown.
