I made one tweak by adding 1/4 cup melted butter and 1/4 cup cold Crisco, but this was great! My family LOVED it. Bread was gone by the afternoon. Thank so much and enjoy your Christmas ❤🎄😊.

You really dont need the crisco. The butter makes it nice and soft. Better to invest a higher quality butter.

Metemgee, thanks so much for sharing this family recipe. I have made several Guyanese plait breads, and this recipe is the best one I have tried. It was soft, fluffy, buttery deliciousness. It didn't even get to cool. It was gone in 15 minutes. I made the dough in my Zo. It doubled in size w/i 45 minutes. The 2nd rise took even less time. This is definitely a keeper.

Thanks for sharing. I can't eat bread as well (diabetes) but it looks like a wonderful gift to share. A few questions: I really didn't see a lot of bubbles when you proofed the yeast. I would have thrown it out and started again. You also said to proof the yeast in a cool place....I would have chosen a warm environment. Also after the dough was made you again mentioned setting it aside in a cool place as an alternative to the oven. Didn't quite understand this either..or suggestion.
