How to Make Tsoureki Greek Easter Bread Bread Machine Recipe
- Combine all ingredients in your bread machine according to the manufacturer's instructions. Select the dough cycle.
- Once the dough cycle is complete, gently remove the dough from the bread machine. Lightly flour a clean surface.
- Divide the dough into three equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope (approximately 24 inches long).
- Braid the three ropes together. Tuck the ends underneath to form a neat loaf.
- Place the braided loaf on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Let the loaf rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Whisk together the egg yolk and milk for the egg wash. Brush the loaf generously with the egg wash.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
- Let the Tsoureki cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Decorate with hard-boiled, dyed eggs before baking (optional).
