Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Easter Bunny Bread
  1. Begin by thawing the frozen bread dough overnight in the refrigerator. Once thawed, take it out and let it rise at room temperature until it has doubled in size, roughly 1 to 2 hours.
  2. Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release any air bubbles, then divide it into pieces for the bunny loaf.
  3. Shape one piece into a round body and two elongated pieces for the ears. Secure the ears to the body using toothpicks if needed.
  4. Transfer your shaped bunny loaf onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Brush the entire loaf with the beaten egg.
  5. Bake the bunny bread for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until it turns a rich golden brown. Check for doneness by tapping the bottom of the loaf.
  6. After baking, remove your Easter Bunny Bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 10-15 minutes.
