Just looking at that recipe based on the one I use: a bit more oil (I use like 2 tbsp, maybe), mine calls for one egg + 2 yolks and waaaaay more total flour. Mine starts at 4.5 cups but I usually end close to 5.5 after I've mixed in/made the consistency closer to what I want.I made this one: https://smittenkitchen.com/2011/09/apple-and-honey-challah/
Because I had some apples I needed to use. I skipped the sugar on top. Maybe there wasn't enough honey? And I don't know, it was okay when there was apple in a bite but the dough itself wasn't sweet enough for my taste and relatively bland.
I did egg wash it, but definitely overbaked it a little bit because the bottom was a bit overdone (not burnt, but overdone). The top rest of the crust was thick and tough in that regard. I might have overproved it a bit.
