IMG_3361By now, you should know that I love eating and baking bread, brioches, and other dough-based recipes. This recipe is simple, and delicious for breakfast, served straight out of the oven. I made a warm and fresh batch this morning for Fiesta Friday.

I would like to wish our host Angie from The Novice Gardener, a big thank you for hosting this sweet party and also hope you get well soon! Thanks to our co-hosts for this week; Selma @Selma’s Table and Margy @La Petite Casserole. If you haven’t joined Fiesta Friday, come and have fun with us, it now has its own platform, and is in Week #61 already!

Wonderful bloggers with wonderful recipes!

Procedure: (Easy)

  1. In the mixing bowl of the stand mixer add the flour and the sugar.
  2. In the middle, add the 3 eggs,
  3. On one side add the fresh yeast, and on the other side add the salt (never add the yeast beside the salt).
  4. Start to mix the all the ingredients with the hook of your stand mixer on a medium speed (during 5 minutes).
  5. Add the butter (cut into small cubes) and mix on a high speed until the dough becomes soft and detaches from the bowl (about 10 minutes).
  6. Transfer the dough into a floured bowl.
  7. Cover with a plastic wrap and set aside for 1 hour.
  8. After 1 hour, punch down to deflate dough completely, then re-cover with plastic wrap.
  9. Refrigerate the bowl into the refrigerator overnight (this will freeze the butter and develop aroma).
  10. The following morning, remove the bowl from the refrigerator and transfer the dough to a floured surface.
  11. Grease small individuals mini brioche mold or muffins tray or a cake baking mold.
  12. Divide the dough into 12 balls (the size of a golf ball).
  13. Place them into the mini brioche mold.
  14. Cover with a clean kitchen cloth and set aside for 2 hours for me.
  15. Preheat the oven to 180C degrees, 10 minutes before baking.
  16. Brush  the top of the briochettes with the rest of the egg yolk.
  17. Bake for 30 minutes (less or more depending on the oven).
  18. Remove when the Briochettes are golden brown and allow to cool a few minutes and serve them warm.

The smell throughout the house is so good! They are soft and perfect for a morning breakfast.

Bonne dégustation.

PS: You can shape the brioche in any form (for example, you can see the twisted brioche with pearl sugar in the back!)
