How to Make Muffin Tin Challah

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve 1/4 cup granulated sugar in 1/2 cup warm water. Add 2 teaspoons active dry yeast and let stand until foamy (about 5-10 minutes).
  2. Add 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup Splenda (or other granulated sugar substitute), 1 large egg, and 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted.
  3. Mix well with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined.
  4. Add 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 cup all-purpose flour.
  5. Mix the dough in the bowl with your hands, adding the remaining 1/4 cup flour if necessary to form a slightly sticky dough.
  6. Lightly flour your work surface only if needed; a slightly wetter dough yields a moister bread. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  7. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  8. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  9. Spray a six-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
  10. Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and gently shape into balls. Place each ball into a muffin cup.
  11. Let rise again for 30 minutes. Brush the tops with milk or an egg wash.
  12. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
