MAKES 2 BREADS
Colomba is an Easter bread, shaped like a dove. Regional versions are found all over Italy. They may be free-formed by hand or baked in special dove-shaped molds. Some have a cake-like texture, while those made with yeast have the consistency and texture of bread dough. In this version, hard-boiled eggs are nestled in the dough before baking. Place the doves in a colorful basket and use as a centerpiece on your Easter table. They also make a nice Easter gift. These can be frozen once completely cool, but the eggs will not be edible.

Hi, my family was mostly from Tuscany & the Colomba they made is made with yeast & very good. Do you have a recipe for that Colomba? I would love to make it.
