| Eggless Tsoureki |
Egg free Tsoureki! Who would have ever thought this would be possible? Not me! That's for sure!
One of my family members has an allergy to eggs and has been instructed to keep away from baked goods containing eggs for a while while her BIE treatments take affect. So when I stumbled across a recipe in Argiro Barbarigou's cookbook EVERYDAY GREEK, I instantly knew I had to make this bread. By the way, this is an amazing cookbook that I highly recommend. Argiro's recipe was delicious, however, it didn't quite meet our needs for eggless Tsoureki. Argiro's recipe was more like a cinnamon twist. (A wonderful recipe that I will post later this week).
As we sampled the cinnamon bread, I looked over to my daughter and sensed a sadness. For the first time ever, she was not going to be able to eat Tsoureki. I had to do something about it! Momma to the rescue!
I put together a combination of a few different Tsoureki recipes I've inherited over the years and combined it with Argiro's recipe. And voila, THE BEST TSOUREKI EVER! In fact, I found this Tsoureki even tastier than aunt Toula's recipe.
