Instructions

In a large bowl, mix the flour, yeast, salt, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, and lukewarm water.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft dough forms.
Pat the dough with the extra oil.
Cover and let rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Divide the dough into 3 pieces, braid them, and place them into a greased loaf tin.
Let it rise again for 10 minutes.
Brush the top with egg wash and sprinkle with seeds of your choice.
Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 20–25 minutes, until golden brown.
Cool slightly before slicing.
