Description

This pretty loaf of bread is named “sunflower bread” because it looks a lot like the flower, with dough that's pinched to look like petals and a poppy seed center. The sweet dough, enriched with butter and eggs, is especially tender, and brushing it with beaten egg yolk before baking gives it a golden, sunflower-like hue. This recipe comes from our kids' cookbook, Sweet & Salty!. Order it now!
