By 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!
Serves: 12 Briochettes
Ingredients:
- 350g of all purpose flour or plain flour
- Pinch of salt
- 30g of caster sugar
- 12g of fresh yeast
- 3 medium eggs
- 160g of good quality of butter
- 1 egg yolk for the brush
Procedure: (Easy)
- In the mixing bowl of the stand mixer add the flour and the sugar.
- In the middle, add the 3 eggs,
- On one side add the fresh yeast, and on the other side add the salt (never add the yeast beside the salt).
- Start to mix the all the ingredients with the hook of your stand mixer on a medium speed (during 5 minutes).
- 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).
- Transfer the dough into a floured bowl.
- Cover with a plastic wrap and set aside for 1 hour.
- After 1 hour, punch down to deflate dough completely, then re-cover with plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate the bowl into the refrigerator overnight (this will freeze the butter and develop aroma).
- The following morning, remove the bowl from the refrigerator and transfer the dough to a floured surface.
- Grease small individuals mini brioche mold or muffins tray or a cake baking mold.
- Divide the dough into 12 balls (the size of a golf ball).
- Place them into the mini brioche mold.
- Cover with a clean kitchen cloth and set aside for 2 hours for me.
- Preheat the oven to 180C degrees, 10 minutes before baking.
- Brush the top of the briochettes with the rest of the egg yolk.
- Bake for 30 minutes (less or more depending on the oven).
- 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!)

Quelles jolies briochettes à la belle mie filante ! Un délice à n’en pas douter. J’aurais du mal à me retenir de toutes les manger si je les avais sous la main. Bon dimanche
Darya, j’ai cuisiné beaucoup de brioches mais la texture de ces briochettes est vraiment parfaite. Ce matin encore, elles étaient moelleuses et pas sèches du tout, de quoi me mettre de bonne humeur pour le reste de la journée. Passe une belle semaine 🙂
I can’t resist a brioche for Sunday morning breakfast, your recipe sounds perfect (as always). N xx
Nicole, I took my breakfast with another brioche this morning and the texture stayed fresh and moist, an agreeable surprise . Have a nice week xx
Luckily we just came back from France with a huge brioche (guess what I had for breakfast), otherwise I would have started baking these immediately… Have a glorious week yourself, N xx

So exciting to see this post for little Brioches Linda! I purchased some brioche moulds not so long ago and have been wondering where to start with finding the perfect recipe… you’ve just solved my problem! These look amazing, both inside and out – can’t wait to try them!

Absolutely STUNNING, Linda! Could you please send me some? 😉
I’m not a morning person so I’m usually … how can I put it? … not in a great mood until the clock strikes noon but your post put a smile on my face today. The texture of these beauties reminds me the brioches that I used to eat with some granita in Sicily when I was a child and I was visiting my grandparents. One of my very few sweet sins!
Her Majesty (my daughter) will love these beautiful masterpieces. Saving your recipe in my secret folder! Thank you! 🙂
Thank you very much Francesca 🙂 I’m definitely a morning person (the house is calm…) I would love to send you a huge ‘panière’ full of warm brioches for your Majesty. They are very easy to make and so good. Have a great day!
These mini brioche look exceptional, Linda! They almost look like a painting due to their beauty. 🙂 I bet they’re perfect with a cup of tea or coffee. Lovely!
Thank you very much my Friend, you just made my day with this beautiful comment Nancy 🙂 I really would love to share a warm brioche with you over a tea xx
These are so cute! But dangerous because I would pop a dozen too many into my mouth. 😛
Thank you Patty 😀 We should do a contest . 😛
You are such a talented cook and baker, Linda. These are just adorable and I could too easily eat too many in one sitting! Thanks so much for sharing these with us at Fiesta Friday x
Thank you for the sweet compliments Selma 🙂 The brioches are so rich and delicious. Definitely making this one again with chocolate inside… Thank you for co-hosting this week FF. Have a great day Selma x

Your mini brioches don’t look that mini! That is even better! They look stunning & amazing, my friend! Waw! xxx
Thank you so much Sophie 🙂 Have a great weekend xx
Linda you should be making these for one of the best brioche places in Lux- looking at how much they charge you would make a fortune in about 2 weeks! Maybe you should seriously consider moving over here?:-D
You made me laugh Marta, you’re so kind to me. I admit it’s tempting 😀 Have a great weekend and Happy Easter xx
I’ve never made brioches before but love baking bread! These came out gorgeous and have infected me with the brioche bug. Thank you for such a beautiful recipe.

I love brioche, now I have a really great recipe, thank you so much, I will try it today!
Thank you so much, Cecilia 🙂 Do let me know how it turns out!
They turned out great! I needed to add some more raising time because of the high altitude we live, over 7000 feet, and I added 10 degrees F more heat. We are enthusiastic, they were so good. Thanks for the recipe!
You made my day Cecilia, I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the mini brioches and that they turn out so well for you. Have a great day and you’re welcome 🙂
Mini brioches, lovely! They look so tasty, I wish I could try them and right now! 🙂
