There are many opportunities to use this bread as a witnessing tool as friends and family talk about the reason for Easter.<\/div>\n<div>Making bread is a lot like playing with play dough.<\/div>\n<div>After mixing the recipe, kneading is folding, pushing, folding, and pushing over and over to make sure the gluten is stretchy. That&#8217;s not exactly a good technical, scientific explanation, but the dough will look and feel stretchy.<\/div>\n<div>After the dough rises to double it&#8217;s original size, punch it down and cut the dough in half.<\/div>\n<div>Play dough time again. Roll each half into a loooong snake \u00a0of about 36 inches.<\/div>\n<div>Braid the two dough snakes and connect them into a circle.<\/div>\n<div>Now take RAW eggs and tuck them in the braids around the loaf.<\/div>\n<div>Then bake the loaf according to your recipe directions.<\/div>\n<div>The raw eggs will now be cooked and taste very much like the boiled Easter eggs you have every year.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>My Easter Egg Chickens have begun to lay blue eggs. I think I might make a loaf with those eggs tucked in among the braids.
