    I am Sicilian. I grew up with same kind of Easter bread. My Nonna also made an Easter cookie with an egg baked on with icing and sprinkles. I cant wait to try this recipe 😋

    I swear your voice just brightens my day. Also, I tried your butter cream icing on a cake recipe and OMG it was delicious and my family couldn’t believe it was made from scratch. 💕💗

    I have made this braided wreath bread with the eggs baked in several times for Easter. It always gets remarks of amazement and happiness when set on the side-board. My mother especially liked it. The younger children draw lot (straws) for the eggs.🥚🥚🥚🥚 Three strand braid represents the "Holy Trinity". Four eggs represent four branches of Christ's cross. The wreath shape represents the circle of life. Thanks for sharing.

    This is like the tsoureki we make in Greece every Easter. So good! Especially if you add some masticha and machlepi. I loved your description of the tsougrisma of the eggs tradition. My grandfather always won! It's so many years that I don't pass Easter in Greece. So many traditions. It's my favourite festivity. A little sad but full of hope. Greek Orthodox Easter is so beautiful. You should Also make koulourakia. I make them every year. The best cookies in the world!

    I made this for the first time for Easter morning. Came out amazing! I didn't add the colored eggs but put a glaze on after it cooled. It reminds me so much of my Italian grandmas Easter bread that she made for all of us every Easter. Your instructions helped so much and I definitely plan to make this again. Every recipe I have tried from your site has been the best!!

    Made this today pre-Easter. It was the best texture and flavor of the many I have made. There's a bit more sugar than some recipes and that helped. But I am glad that I didn't make it on Easter morning because my rising times were huge -- about double what John recommended to get sufficient puffiness. Sometimes that happens, and you have to wait. It worked.
