    How to Make Traditional Easter Bread with Rhodes Rolls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    1. Thaw the bread dough.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    I let my loaves thaw in the refrigerator overnight. I put them in at 10pm and pulled them out around 2pm the next day, and they were perfect. Side note: I pulled out four loaves (pictured), but I ended up only using three.<\/p>\n\n\n

    2. Slice the dough lengthwise into three strips.<\/h3>\n\n\n

    3. Pinch the ends of two strips together, and pinch together another two strips to the ends to create two long strips that are connected at the top.<\/h3>\n\n\n

    4. Twist the two strips together.<\/h3>\n\n\n

    5. Repeat the process with four more strips. Connect the two twists by connecting them at the ends to form a circle.<\/h3>\n\n\n

    6. Brush with an egg wash and gently press the dyed Easter eggs into the folds of the twists.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Sprinkle sanding sugar over the egg wash and let the dough rise.<\/p>\n\n\n

    8. Drizzle the glaze over the Traditional Easter Bread and decorate with sprinkles.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Enjoy warm! You can cut it into slices or simple pull apart the twists.<\/p>\n\n\n
