Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 2 teaspoons Sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Warm water (110°F/43°C)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 cup Green onions, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
• 1 large Egg, beaten

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.

Step 3

Add the yeast mixture and 3 tablespoons of melted butter to the flour. Stir until a dough forms.

Step 4

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Step 6

Once the dough has risen, punch it down and knead in the chopped green onions, parsley, and dill until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Shape the dough into a loaf and place it into a greased loaf pan. Cover it with a towel and let it rise again for 30 minutes.

Step 8

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 9

Brush the top of the loaf with the beaten egg and drizzle the remaining tablespoon of melted butter over the surface.

Step 10

Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.

Step 11

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
