Sprinkle yeast over warm water.

Mix in oil, honey, and salt. Beat in 3 eggs. That's the secret, an extra egg! Makes the texture absolutely perfect!

Get 8 cups of flour ready!

Mix in flour one cup at a time. You may need additional flour. Mix until the dough is elastic, and not sticky.

Cover and let rise for about 2-2 1/2 hrs. Wait patiently! :)

Come back and look at this beauty!

Punch down dough. My favorite part. ;)

Divide dough in half. Braid one, or both. I recommend braiding both. The braid turned out way better! :)

Let rise for about 30 minutes. Brush tops with beaten egg.

Bake in a 375 degree Fahrenheit, oven for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown!

This is the loaf version. Needs to be baked longer, than the braid!

Mmm mm good. (:

My brother loves it!

Needs butter!

That's better.

My dad had seconds!
