Some recipes are so simple, yet so delicious, they stay in the family for generations. This old trick from my grandma takes basic bread to the next level — all you need to do is pour eggs right into the dough. The result? A golden, fluffy bread that’s rich in flavor and perfect for any meal.
Why Add Eggs to Bread?
- Fluffier Texture – Eggs make the bread soft and airy.
- Golden Color – Gives the crust and crumb a beautiful, rich look.
- Extra Nutrition – Protein, healthy fats, and vitamins in every slice.
- Delicious Flavor – Adds a subtle, comforting taste.
