Time 1h45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon water
1 egg
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
3 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ Better for Bread™ flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons bread machine yeast
1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons cold water
1 tablespoon poppy seed

Steps:

  • Measure carefully, placing all ingredients except egg yolk, cold water and poppy seed in bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
  • Select Dough/Manual cycle. Do not use Delay cycle.
  • Remove dough from pan, using lightly floured hands. Cover and let rest 10 minutes on lightly floured surface.
  • Grease large cookie sheet. Divide dough into thirds. Roll each third into 13-inch rope. Place ropes side by side; braid ropes gently and loosely, starting at the middle. Pinch ends to seal; tuck ends under braid. Place on cookie sheet. Cover and let rise in warm place about 45 minutes or until double. (Dough is ready if indentation remains when touched.)
  • Heat oven to 375°F. Mix egg yolk and cold water; brush over loaf. Sprinkle with poppy seed. Bake about 25 minutes or until golden brown.
