Zubereitung von Chocolate Chip Challah
- In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water with a teaspoon of sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add the remaining sugar, salt, and oil to the yeast mixture. Stir well to combine.
- Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Add more flour if needed to prevent sticking.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Once doubled, punch down the dough to release the air. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the dough into three equal parts. Braid the three strands together, shaping into a traditional challah loaf. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Cover the loaf loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Whisk together the egg and water for the egg wash.
- Brush the challah with the egg wash and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
