Apple Honey Challah

When I saw this apple challah on Tastespotting, I just had to try it myself !
I think it is one of Martha Stewart's recipes (I am not a fan of hers, but her recipes are good) and the recipe is on THIS website, along with nice pictures.
However, I have posted a few pictures of my own here to show you how I did it.
It's very tasty and the apples do make it taste even better !
You really need to TRY it !
The only things I changed were adding 1 teaspoon of orange zest and some almond slices on top.

Here is how I started with the apple slices, but then decided to remove them and cut them in 2.

Here is a close-up of the dough ready for the 2nd rise.


Here is the stretched log before twisting and coiling to let it rise for the final time.


The dough just placed in the 9 inch pie pan, ready for its final proofing.


Now it rose and it is ready for baking.

Right out of the oven.

Here is the inside and let me tell you it is SO GOOD !
