Apple And Honey Challah
  1. Whisk yeast and 1 teaspoon honey into ⅔ cup warm water and let stand until foamy.

  2. In a stand mixer, whisk together yeast mixture, oil, remaining honey, eggs and yolk. Switch to dough hook and add flour and salt. Knead until smooth and elastic.

  3. Transfer dough to a large oil-coated bowl, cover with plastic wrap and set aside for 1 hour, or until almost doubled in size.

  4. Turn dough out onto a floured counter and gently press it down. Spread ⅔ of apple chunks over half of the flattened dough. Fold the other half over the apple chunks and press down.

  5. Spread the remaining ⅓ apple chunks over half the folded dough. Fold the other half over the apples and press down again.

  6. Divide dough into 4 pieces. Roll each into a rope and weave them together.

  7. Transfer the dough to a parchment-covered baking sheet. Brush with egg wash and let rise for another hour.

  8. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until beautifully bronzed.

  9. Cool loaf on a rack before serving.
