Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm milk and let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
  3. Add the yeast mixture and egg to the flour mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise for 1 hour.
  5. Meanwhile, peel, core, and dice the apples. In a bowl, toss the apples with lemon juice, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  6. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  7. Punch down the dough and divide it into 2 equal portions. Roll out each portion into a rectangle.
  8. Spread the apple mixture evenly over one rectangle, leaving a border around the edges. Place the second rectangle on top.
  9. Cut slits along the sides of the rectangle and braid the dough. Press the edges to seal.
  10. Transfer the braided bread onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown.
  11. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Drizzle the glaze over the warm bread.
  12. Let the bread cool for 30 minutes before serving.
