Dutch Oven Challah Bread

One of my students brought in challah bread for one of our training breakfast meeting and I knew I wanted to try it in my dutch oven.  This recipe for Jewish Challah Bread is easy and delicious.   I used my oval dutch oven and since there is not much information about temperatures for this I had to figure it out.  I used the same temperature scale that I would use on my 14 inch dutch oven using 22 briquettes on top and 12 on the bottom for 375 degrees.  I cooked this 45 minutes or until the top is nicely brown and the bread sounds hollow with you knock on it.  Since the oval dutch oven does not have legs I used 2 dutch oven lid stands to cook it on.

Thanks for reading, and get out there and get cooking!
