The bread is an Eggless Challah bread that I make often. I couldn't braid this bread as the chocolate chunks would melt on too much handling of the dough. But if you live in cooler climes, go ahead, braid this bread.Its partially whole wheat. Well, just because.Maple Syrup gives an amazing glaze to the bread that otherwise egg would have leant.
For the
Chocolate Bread with Candied Orange , Pecans and Maple Syrup -Egg Free
You need
2 cups all purpose flour or maida1 cup whole wheat flour or atta1/4 cup sugar1/4 cup neutral vegetable oil 1 1/4 cup water1/2 tsp salt2 1/2 tsp instant yeast1/3 cup more or less chopped candied oranges or orange peel1/2 cup chocolate chunks or chips1/3 cup pecans choppedMaple Syrup to brush

Oil a large bowl and place the dough ball and allow to rise.I generally pour 2 tbsp oil in a large bowl, then swish the dough ball around and coat the dough ball too before covering.Around an hour later ,or maybe two-depending upon your weather ,the dough ball doubles.




Else slightly elongate and place in prepared tin, seam side down.Allow to rest atleast an hour. Preheat oven to 180C for atleast 15 minutes.Brush the loaves with sufficient maple syrup and pop into the oven



A new flavor in your daily bread. Its healthy, tasty and homemade.
