How To Make hidden fruit braid

  • Step 1
    Thaw frozen dough as directed on header page. (See Robin Hood Flour Freezer Yeast Dough). Roll dough into a 14x9-inch rectangle on lightly floured board. Cut into three 3-inch wide strips.
  • Step 2
    Combine filling and coconut. Spread evenly down center of each strip (about 1/3 c. on each).
  • Step 3
    Pinch lengthwise edges of each strip together to make a rope. Braid 3 ropes together on greased baking sheet. Seal ends and tuck under.
  • Step 4
    Brush dough lightly with oil. Cover baking sheet loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm, draft free place for 1 hour or until doubled.
  • Step 5
