Ingredients

  • package active yeast dry
  • 0.3 lb butter 
  • large egg yolks 
  • large eggs 
  • 2.5 cups flour all-purpose
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt 
  • tablespoons sugar 
  • 0.3 cup water 

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • oven

Directions

  1. Process ingredients on dough cycle, according to manufacturer's directions.
  2. At the end of the cycle, scrape the dough onto a board lightly coated with all-purpose flour. Divide dough into 3 equal pieces. If making a 1 1/2-pound loaf, roll each piece to form a rope about 12 inches long. For a 2-pound loaf, roll each piece to form a rope about 14 inches long.
  3. Lay ropes parallel about 1 inch apart on a buttered 14- by 17-inch baking sheet. Pinch ropes together at one end, braid loosely, then pinch braid end together.
  4. Cover loaf lightly with plastic wrap and let stand in a warm place until puffy, about 35 minutes.
  5. Remove plastic wrap.
  6. Beat 1 large egg yolk to blend with 1 tablespoon water.
  7. Brush braid with egg mixture.
  8. Bake braid in a 350 oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Cool on a rack at least 15 minutes before slicing.
  9. Serve hot, warm, or cool.
  10. To make a 2-pound loaf, use 1/3 cup water, 3 large eggs, 2 large egg yolks, 3/4 cup (3/8 lb.) butter or margarine, 3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 package active dry yeast.
