Christmas wreath bread

Overview

There is obviously a lack of attention to foreign festivals. Making garland bread is not only for the occasion, but also a nice way to end the year for your small kitchen.

Ingredients

Steps

Pour all ingredients except butter into bread machine
Making the first noodles
After it's cooked, add butter and bake again
Take the dough out and put it in a bowl
Leave at room temperature for about 2 hours to complete the first fermentation
Dough with obvious air holes
Drizzle a little oil on a silicone cutting board, take half of the dough (the total amount can make two garland bread), and divide it into three loaves
Brush some cooking oil
slightly elongated
Start braiding
Braid it evenly, you can feel like braiding your hair when you were a kid
After braiding, form it into a circle and flatten the extra strip of noodles
Wrap around the wreath and close
Carefully transfer to the parchment paper on the baking sheet
Use the fermentation function of the oven for secondary fermentation, about 1 hour
After rising, brush with egg wash and preheat the oven at 200 degrees for 3 or 5 minutes
Adjust the temperature of the upper and lower tubes to 150 degrees, heat the air, place the baking sheet on the middle layer, and bake for 15-20 minutes
The shape of the braids is maintained pretty well after baking
After taking it out of the oven, let it cool completely because you need to use small sugar granules for decoration
I specially selected small red and green stars from the colorful candies
Let’s take a close-up. I bought this sugar granule from a baking ingredient store I frequent
It’s also very atmospheric if you change the angle
I don’t know if garland bread is a standard Christmas dish, just entertain yourself
