Challah is a type of Jewish braided bread that is traditionally eaten for holidays, but it’s so good we want to eat it all the time. If you buy a loaf of challah bread but don’t know how to use your leftovers, here are some great ideas. 

Challah French Toast

Because challah is so fluffy and thick, it’s a great bread to make French toast with. Make sure to cut thick slices so you can really enjoy the soft texture of the bread. Challah is also known to be a sweeter bread, which makes your French toast taste that much better!

Served with Shakshuka

Pairing challah with shakshuka is a great breakfast or lunch option. Shakshuka is a tomato sauce cooked with eggs, and it is common to dip various breads into the sauce to enjoy it. Challah bread is a common choice because it compliments the flavors of the shakshuka perfectly.

Challah Breakfast Bake

Sometimes all you want to do is throw a bunch of ingredients in the oven and enjoy a warm casserole-type dish. You can make delicious breakfast bakes with challah. You can add eggs, berries, raisins, apples, and so many more delicious ingredients to have the perfect challah breakfast bake!
