Deli Roll Challah

This challah is filled with pockets of mustard and deli meat! Need I say more? This challah is the ultimate savory mashup!

What you will need:

Challah dough {recipe here}

Filling

6-8 tbsp yellow mustard

1/8 cup fresh chives

8 slices of deli meat of choice

Topping

Yellow mustard

1 egg

Directions: 

Prepare challah dough according to directions. 

Slice the deli meat into thin strips and chop the chives to small pieces. 

Preheat the oven to 350°F. 

Divide dough into 4 equal parts and then roll each part into a log, long enough to fit a loaf pan.

Gently flatten each log so that it is about 2 inches wide. Spread a layer of mustard down the center of the log and sprinkle chives on top. Lay the deli meat on top. Pinch the logs closed and braid. 

Place the challah in a greased loaf pan and let the challah rise 30 minutes. 

 

Once the challah has risen, brush with a thin layer of mustard and an egg wash, and sprinkle with some chives and sesame seeds. 

Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the challah is cooked through.

Look at those pockets of savory yumminess!

Enjoy!
