Plait bread is a type of braided bread (plait, meaning to braid or interweave) and is the most popular and frequently consumed bread in Guyanese cuisine. It can be eaten for breakfast with various spreads, dipped in tea, toasted with butter, and completes a wonderful pepper pot meal on Christmas morning. Many might compare this bread to challah bread because it looks similar in appearance, but the main difference is plait bread does not contain any eggs. This sold by the loaf either white or whole wheat.
