Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) using conventional oven settings (top and bottom heat) and bake the braided yeast bread in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes . After 15 minutes, cover with parchment paper if necessary to prevent over-browning. Remove the finished braided yeast bread from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack.
