Mr. Neff’s Challah Bread Recipe

 

Make way for the delightful fluffy challah bread, sure to bring you joy with its sweet aroma and delightfully light flavor.

 

Cook time: 35 minutes

 


Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil (I prefer avocado oil for flavor and health reasons – you may substitute sunflower oil or canola oil)
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 1/2-6 cups all purpose flour – PLEASE NOTE – if you are using the metric conversion tool on this recipe, the flour is not updating correctly. The correct metric measurements for flour are 562.5 to 750 grams (do not change the recipe serving sizes or it will not work)

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon cold water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Optional Ingredients

Optional Toppings

  • Sesame seeds, poppy seeds, kosher salt
