]]> 100112 1 40 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/265122/40.jpg Beat in sugar, oil, eggs, and salt Whisk in the sugar, oil, three eggs, and salt.

]]> 100113 2 44 Tip You can substitute ¼ cup honey for the sugar.

]]> 100114 3 47 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/265122/47.jpg Add the flour Add in the rest of the flour 1 cup at a time, kneading it in with your hands once the mixture thickens. Knead for about five minutes until smooth, adding flour if it’s too sticky. Put the dough in a clean bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rise until the dough has doubled in size, about two hours.

]]> 100115 4 66 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/265122/66.jpg Punch it Punch the dough down and transfer it to a lightly-floured surface. Knead for about five minutes, adding flour if needed.

]]> 100116 5 75 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/265122/75.jpg Make a braid Divide the dough into three equal parts and roll each piece into an approximately 9-inch long rope. Braid the three ropes together, and pinch the ends together to seal.

]]> 100117 6 86 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/265122/86.jpg Let it sit Put the braid on a greased baking sheet, cover with a dishcloth, and let it rise until it has doubled in size. The dough should stay dented when you poke it, instead of springing back into place.

]]> 100118 7 97 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/265122/97.jpg Preheat oven Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Beat the remaining egg and brush it on the top of the braid. Sprinkle with poppy seeds if you like.

]]> 100119 8 108 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/265122/108.jpg Bake Bake for 30 to 40 minutes until bread is golden brown. Test for doneness by taking it out of the oven and rapping it on the bottom with your knuckles; if it sounds hollow, it’s ready.

]]> 100120 9 118 Tip If the top is browning too fast, tent it with foil.

]]> 100121 10 122 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/265122/122.jpg Enjoy! Cool at least one hour before slicing. If you have any left over, use it for French toast in the morning!
