Challah Knots - pillowy soft yeast buns tied up in a knot. Easy and 
fail-proof challah recipe that yields amazing bread that you can't stop eating.

PREP: 20 MINUTES
COOK: 20 MINUTES
RISING: 2 HOURS

In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks and butter. Add the water and 
whisk until well combined. Set aside.

Using a stand mixer with paddle attachment, whisk the flour with the 
sugar, yeast, and salt. Add the egg yolk mixture and mix for about 1 
minute or until well combined. Change to the dough hook and knead for 
about 10 minutes, on medium speed. The dough should be soft (add a 
little more flour if the dough is too sticky).

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Transfer the dough to a clean, oiled bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel 
and let rise in a warm place, or in a 100F warm oven, for about 60 to 
70 minutes or until spongy. Turn out the dough onto a flat surface 
dusted with flour. Knead with hands and cut into 6 equal pieces. 
Cover with a towel and rest for about 15 minutes.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll each dough into a log 
(10" long). Fold the log into a knot. Transfer the knots to the 
baking sheet and brush with the beaten egg white. Let them rise for 
about 30 minutes or until puffy. Repeat the egg wash again and 
sprinkle with salt.

Bake for about 20 minutes or until the Challah knots are golden brown 
and shiny. Remove from the oven and serve warm.
