Be sure To add the egg replacement RIGHT BEFORE adding the flour, this acts as a binding agent which is what the eggs would do in the recipe.

Pour warm water into the yeast in a medium sized bowl and mix well with a fork.

let the mixture rest until bubbly and creamy (usually about 5 min)

Measure out the flour while waiting for the yeast.

Add the sugar, salt, and 2 Tablespoons of canola oil to the yeast mixture and mix well with a fork.

Beat the egg replacement with a whisk until well combined, note that it will fizz, pour this into the yeast mixture.

Add the flour, cup by cup, until its hard to stir, transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead dough elastic and smooth. it should be springy.

REMEMBER TO ALWAYS SEPARATE DOUGH: 1. Place the dough in front of you, before it has been formed into any sort of shape.

Some have the custom to give charity or wash hands (netilat yadayim) without a blessing before fulfilling the mitzvah.

Recite the blessing.

Translation: Blessed are You, L-rd our G-d, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us to separate challah.

Remove a small piece from the dough, lift it, and say This is Challah.

Burn the separated dough or wrap it in two layers and discard it.

Transfer Dough to a slightly Oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth and put in a warm place (i usually heat the oven to 100 degrees) for 90 min.

Transfer to a lightly floured surface and cut dough into equal halves. divide each piece into 4 pieces then roll out into 10 inch logs. pinch the ends together and braid dough

Place challah loaves on a baking sheet and let raise for an additional 30 min.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Bake for approximately 25-30 Min depending on your oven.
