Ingredients

4 Cups  Flour

1 ½ teaspoon salt

1/3 cup sugar

2 eggs (1 for recipe 1 for wash)

¼ cup oil

Directions

Pre-heat oven 350 degrees.

Mix dry ingredients except the salt (flour, sugar and yeast).

Add the salt and then mix again.

Add egg and oil to the dry ingredients and continue mixing (in a stand-mixer with a dough hook is the easiest).  Slowly add the water and knead until you get smooth soft dough.

Let the dough rise again for 20 min.

Egg wash the challah and bake for 30-35 minutes.
