Hello everyone, welcome to my latest recipe for Gluten and Dairy Free Challah Bread.
The last couple of Sunday’s I’ve enjoyed experimenting with gluten and dairy free versions of some specialist breads. This week I’ve had a go at making Challah bread, a traditional plaited Jewish loaf enjoyed on the sabbath and at the holidays.
I used the rest of this loaf to make a lovely gluten and dairy free bread pudding. I’ll type up the recipe and make sure I share it soon.
