Whole Wheat Braided Bread

Whole Wheat Braided Bread

In my recipe for whole wheat bread , I  divided the dough in two parts. I used the first part for making the bread loaf. The other part I further divided it into two parts to make whole wheat nutella flower bread and braided bread. This is the recipe for braided bread. You can either use the entire dough for making one big braided bread or you can divide it into multiple parts and make braided bread of different sizes. The small size braided bread shown here look really elegant and are the best party pick ups. They can be used as a starter and served oven fresh in your parties. These small braided breads are easy to carry and can be a good option for picnic or pot luck. You can make them a day in advance and then serve them warm. I have sprinkled some flax seeds over them. You can top it with any seeds of your choice or any dry or fresh herbs.

Enjoy making and baking it. Serve it to your near and dear ones and you will be appreciated for the efforts you have put in.
