Cardamom Braid Bread

This recipe comes from here.  I actually followed this recipe, other than dividing it in half in order to only make on loaf instead of two.  And I left off the part about brushing egg/cream on it and sprinkling almonds over top before baking.


I enjoyed making a braided bread like this.  There is a braided raisin bread that I have made in the past and this one was pretty similar, only without the raisins and with cardamom instead of cinnamon. 


Of course, I enjoyed it because I love bread.  And I was quite pleased until I came back to the kitchen after lunch and discovered the cooling bread swarming with the tiny ants that infest our house...  So I spent about five minutes brushing ants off in order to be able to enjoy the rest of the bread later!
