Daisy Braid Bread Recipe

 If you want the perfect make-ahead, but still enjoy a hot bread recipe: you must try this Daisy Braid Bread. This has become one of my go-to breads for Sunday dinner. It's perfect because you can make the dough ahead of time, either in the morning or even the night before and refrigerate it. Then just stick it in the oven and serve it hot with dinner.

I found the recipe over at It's Always Autumn. I tweaked it a bit to include wheat flour. If you want a white bread recipe, head over there and check it out.

This makes two loaves. I usually bake them both at the same time. We eat one and freeze the other {after it's cooled} for another time. The day we want to eat it I pull it out in the morning and by dinner it's thawed and I just stick it in the oven for 5-10 minutes to re-heat.
