Fluffy Brioche (3 Types)
- 1 Super Rich Bread Dough
- 1 dash Egg (to glaze)
- Make the bread dough and let it rise the first time.
- The dough will rise about 1.2-2x it's original size, so it will take more time than regular bread dough.
- After the dough has risen, divide it in half and lightly press out the gas.
- Form into round balls and let sit for 15 minutes.
- Grease the brioche pan with fat.
- Brioche Sucre 1) Divide the bread dough into 4 sections.
- 2) Lightly press the gas out of each piece of dough and then form into round balls.
- Place 3 balls on the bottom and top with 1.
- Brioche a Tete 1) Cut out 1/4 of bread dough.
- 2) Press the gas out of the two pieces of dough and form both into round balls.
- Place the big ball on the bottom and top with the smaller ball.
- Press the top ball into the larger ball of dough so that it doesn't fall off when baking.
- It's said that the shape of the Brioche a Tete is of a sitting monk from the Middle Ages.
- Brioche Mousseline Lightly push out the gas and form the dough into a ball.
- Let it rise a second time for about 30 minutes, until the dough rises 1.5x the original size.
- (You can use the oven's bread proofing function at 40C.
- During the summer, leave at room temperature.)
- Brush on the egg and bake for 13-15 minutes in a preheated 180C oven.
- When you want to reheat them, lightly cover with plastic wrap and microwave 1 piece at 500 W for 20 seconds.
- They will be just as fluffy as when they are freshly baked.
- My children like to tear open the brioche and pour on syrup or maple syrup.
- Even though it's all the same dough, you can have fun enjoying different textures and shapes.
- The Mousseline type is the most fluffy and my favorite.
