Instructions
Combine 1 1/2 cups flour
sugar
yeast
basil
salt
oregano
garlic powder
and rosemary in a large bowl.
Combine milk
water
and butter in a small microwave-safe bowl. Heat in a microwave until butter melts
about 30 seconds. Pour over the flour mixture; beat until dough is just moistened. Add egg; beat until smooth. Stir in remaining 3 cups flour to form a soft dough.
Turn dough onto a floured surface such as a large cutting board or countertop. Knead until smooth and elastic
about 4 minutes. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
Divide dough into thirds. Shape each piece into a 15-inch rope. Transfer ropes to a greased baking sheet. Braid together. Pinch ends to seal; tuck under the braid. Cover and let rise until doubled
about 25 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Brush top of the braid with olive oil and sprinkle with basil.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown
