Steps

140 mins

1

Place white bread flour, wheat bread flour, sugar and salt into a mixing bowl, gently mix well.
2

Dissolve dried yeast in warm milk, leave it for 1-2 min. After that add the milk mixture into the flour mixture. Quickly combine them.
3

When all the flour are moistened, place the dough onto a pastry board. Knead the dough in a forward motion by hands for 5 min, fold in butter to the dough. Then knead the dough for another 5 min or until the butter is combined.
4

Take about 1/3 of dough, add in coffee powder. Knead the dough until all coffee powder is combined and smooth. While for the plain dough, knead it until smooth. This process usually takes about 15 mins.
5

Leave the coffee dough and the plain dough in separate mixing bowls for 30 min at 40C, or until they are doubled in size.
6

When the doughs are ready, transfer them onto a pastry board. Gently press them to remove excess air. Divide the plain dough into 3 portions and coffee dough into 2 portions. Shape all the doughs into balls.
7

Flatten all the doughs. Then place the doughs in alternating colours. (Plain dough on top and bottom). After that, flatten the dough into a big circle.
8

Roll the dough in a cylinder shape, gently press the dough to flatten it.
9

Cut the dough into 3 prices and braid the dough. Transfer it to a baking tray. Cover the dough and allow it to stay in warm place (40C) for 30min or until it is doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 180C.
10

When the dough is ready, bake it in the oven at 180C for 30min or until golden brown. Leave it to cool completely before serving.
