| Star Wars Italian Easter Egg Bread | 
In 
Italy it is fairly common for Nonna's to make their grandchildren 
Pane di Pasqua aka Easter Bread. It's a delicious treat. The bread is often flavored with lemon and/or anise, is braided, formed into a ring, and has one or more Easter eggs as part of it.

So using my 
basic potato bread recipe, I made my kids 
Star Wars Italian Easter Bread. We made two types. The 
traditional sweet treat and one that was instead flavored with 
garlic and cheese to go with dinner.

Instead of baking the
 Easter eggs into it, I made egg forms from foil 
and parchment paper and used them as placeholders for our 
Easter Eggs 
after the bread came out of the oven.

To get whatever type of candy sprinkles to stick to the top one can use either a milk or egg wash on top of the bread, before sprinkling it. As it bakes you may need to place a piece of foil loosely over the top to keep the tops from getting too brown.  Buon Appetito!
