1. 1

   In large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, orange peel and salt. Heat water, milk and butter until very warm (120: to 130:F); stir into dry ingredients. Stir in 1 egg, almonds and enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 6 to 8 minutes. Cover; let rest on floured surface 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Divide dough in half; roll each to 30-inch rope. Loosely twist ropes together. Place twisted rope on large greased baking sheet; shape into circle and pinch ends together to seal. Place 7 clean eggs, evenly spaced, on dough, pressing between ropes in twist. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 20 to 40 minutes.
