Easy

Diets 
Yields 4 loaves
7 to 10 tablespoons sugar (adjust to preference)
1 cup oil, such as Gefen Canola Oil
beaten egg, for egg wash, optional
In a container (I use a large measuring cup), add water, sugar, and yeast. Stir well until dissolved and set aside to do its magic.
Add remaining ingredients into a mixing bowl. Add the yeast mixture and knead.
Cover with a towel and let it rise for one to two hours.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide into four equal portions. Braid challahs as desired. Brush with beaten egg for a glazed exterior, if desired
Bake challah for approximately 30 minutes.
