My family didn't think it was anything special. It over browned on my basic setting. I would have to use a shorter setting if I ever made it again.

I make this bread for my family every Friday. I have made some modifications...I add about 1T honey for sweetness. I also make two small loaves, one with raisins and one plain. It makes the best french toast the next day. Additionally, I set my bread machine for dough and remove after the cycle is complete, need briefly, braid and bake according to directions for bread machine challah II. Thank you for a great recipe and a new tradition for Shabbat!

I did not know what Challah was when I made this, so I didn't know what to expect. This is a great slightly sweet, fluffy yet filling bread. It's great as toast, too! I've made this 2 or 3 times and it has never failed to please us.

WOW! What else can I say, I will never buy bread again. I have made this bread atleast 5 times in the past two weeks. It is great. I also like others let the machine do the work and then take it out and make the bread however I want. I have braided it, created a circle loaf,rolls, and just a regular loaf to use for sandwiches. I plan on making french toast with it next. I can't say enough about this bread. The dough is great to work with. I added a little honey to the dough on one loaf and that was great too. My husband and kids love it too! Thanks so much for the great recipe!

This was so good. Followed the directions exactly but I still had trouble with the darkness of the bread. I baked on light but the sides of the bread still got a little burnt. It could be my machine, but next time I will not bake for the full time. Will make again since everyone raved about it even if it was a little well done.

I made this bread dough into rolls and found them to be too dense/packy and a bit too sweet. For some reason they didn't seem to rise like most do. I won't be using this recipe again.

THE easiest recipe for bread machine bread with the most flavor ever! Thanks for the reviews that mentioned to bake on 'light' crust. Comes out perfect everytime. I always rolled my eyes when I read that some people make bread every night (why when you can buy it!) not anymore! This recipe is soooo easy and yummy (I know it by heart now!) it's so simple to make and have on hand. PLUS the family LOVES the aroma through the home...free potpourri! lol. :) THANKS!

This smelled so good and baked up nice and soft. I used skim milk and 1 real egg, 1 egg substitute. I will make this again. Very easy.

Fast and easy to mix up. Nice texture and flavor. Wanted to make bread pudding with this - but looks like it will all be eaten as slices. Glad the recipe indicated to use the light setting on the bread machine - got a nice golden brown. (Usually I have to use Medium to get that color!)Good will make again!

I don't know if I have an appreciation for challah like others do. It's heavier than other breads. It was good, however. I liked the top crust, it was flaky around the edges and it had a nice golden color.

It turned out light & chewy. I used kosher salt so it's a bit saltier than I expected. Next time I'll try table salt or less kosher salt. The smell was wonderful while it baked & everyone in my house gathered around to try it when it came out. I think this is going to become a regular for the bread machine.

This bread had a yummy flavor but the loaf was small and very dense, not the typical Challah I was expecting. I really liked the flavor but I don't think I'll use this recipe again. (revised review) I tried this recipe again on accident (forgot I tried it before!) with our new bread machine and it was a lot better. I made it especially for dipping with fondue and our guests loved the bread and requested the recipe! I think it worked out better because our new machine had a crust color setting and is more precise with the baking.
