Bread500g/1.1 lb flour
1 egg +1 egg yolk
¼ cup oil
7g/¼ oz, 1 packet, yeast
1 Tsp sugar
1 ½ tsp salt
About 1 ½ cup milk and water mix, warm
Start the yeast in a small bowl with a tsp of sugar, and a little bit of warm milk. Mix all ingredients, adding milk/water mixture as needed, more or less than the recipe calls to get medium soft dough. If you like sweet bread, add more sugar.
Let it rise, until it doubles, then work it on a floured surface, and shape one small ball, one large ball to get a ladybug (or something else). Cut the large ball of dough through the middle to get the wings look. Decorate with poppy seeds or something else. As you do this, preheat oven to 395F, and then bake the bread for about 30 minutes or more if necessary. Enjoy watching your kids, or other kids in your life tear it apart! :)
Tip: Once it's baked, and after all the awes, you can shake of some of the poppy seeds, if you don't like that many. I think next time I'll make the ladybug spots with pieces of bread, and just stick them on with egg yolk wash. Might even look cuter...

WOOOW! This is soooo cute!
Thank you all! It was fun and easy! Can't wait to try more things with bread! Love baking!
Just found your blog while looking for the "peach" cookies. I can't wait to try some of your recipies! I'm really looking forward to making the apple rings.
Glad to have you here Ruby rose, have fun, and I hope you like whatever you try! If you have questions, let me know.
that us just darling!
I have to say I'm not usually too big on cute but I love this!
This is too cute! How did you get the poppyseeds to stick in those place if you put egg wash over the whole thing?
Thanks Hillary! I had to be careful when putting the seeds on; I would get really close with the container of the poppy seeds to the each spot, and pour some out, then gently spread it with my finger to make the spot.
I actually think it would be better, easier, and cuter to just use pieces of bread, and make the spots like that... next time...
Wow! this is creative, Medena.
This is SOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!! I absolutely loved it! A must try! You are an amazing baker!!!!

How sweet! My 4 year old grand niece is coming for a visit next weekend. I really should make this bread for her.
Bubamara je skroz slatka :) Ne deluje komplikovano pa bih mogla i da probam.
Inace, blog je predivan, ja ne znam da li sam tebe nasla preko Marije ili obratno, uglavnom nabasala sam preko linkova sa bloga jedne kineskinje! :)
Probala sam palenta pitu, super je, imam nameru da je pravim uskoro za sitno posluzenje povodom decijeg rodjendana, samo da secem na kockice.
Videh i da si bila odsutna neko vreme, i bas sam se obradovala kad sam posle duzeg vremena videla post kod tebe.
Sve naj,
