• In a large bowl add the yeast, sugar, water and mix. Wait 5 mins for the mixture to activate. 
• Add the water, oil, honey, eggs, salt and cinnamon. Mix. 
• Add the flour gradually and mix until a dough forms. Knead 5 - 10 mins.
• Put in a lightly oiled bowl and cover. Let it rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 350°F / 180°C.

Filling

• For the filling, add oil to a pan. Then add the chopped apples, honey, brown sugar, apple juice, salt and cinnamon.
• Fry on medium heat until the apples are soft and caramelized. 

Shaping

• Split the dough into two and roll each piece into a long rectangle. Add the filling into the middle in a line and roll into a log. 
• Cut each log in half longways. 
• Take the four strands and braid into a round babka (watch video for step by step instructions).
• Place into a round cake tin and eggwash.

Streusel

• Make the streusel by mixing the dry ingredients in a bowl then adding the wet ingredients and mixing until combined and crumbly. 
• Use a spoon to sprinkle the streusel generously onto the babka. 
• Bake for 35 - 45 mins until the top is golden. Enjoy!
