Time 1h25m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 ½ cups all-purpose flour, divided
3 tablespoons white sugar
2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
2 teaspoons dried basil
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
¾ teaspoon garlic powder
¾ teaspoon dried rosemary
¾ cup milk
½ cup water
4 tablespoons butter
1 egg
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon dried basil

Steps:

  • Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, sugar, yeast, basil, salt, oregano, garlic powder, and rosemary in a large bowl.
  • Combine milk, water, and butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Heat in a microwave until butter melts, about 30 seconds. Pour over the flour mixture; beat until dough is just moistened. Add egg; beat until smooth. Stir in remaining 3 cups flour to form a soft dough.
  • Turn dough onto a floured surface such as a large cutting board or countertop. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 4 minutes. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Divide dough into thirds. Shape each piece into a 15-inch rope. Transfer ropes to a greased baking sheet. Braid together. Pinch ends to seal; tuck under the braid. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 25 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Brush top of the braid with olive oil and sprinkle with basil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet, or remove to a wire rack.
