Combining the richness of whole milk, softened butter, and eggs with a balanced blend of all-purpose and bread flours, this recipe yields a soft, tender crumb with a slightly sweet flavor, thanks to a touch of granulated sugar. Designed for convenience, your breadmaker does all the heavy lifting—from kneading to baking—on the “Sweet Bread” cycle, ensuring foolproof results every time. Whether you enjoy it as a breakfast treat, sandwich bread, or dessert base, this golden loaf boasts a light crust and pairs beautifully with jams, spreads, or savory toppings. With just 10 minutes of prep, let the breadmaker transform your kitchen into a bakery and fill your home with the warm, irresistible aroma of freshly baked brioche!
Add the milk, softened butter, and eggs to the breadmaker pan, ensuring that the ingredients are at room temperature.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour and bread flour evenly over the wet ingredients in the pan.
Add the sugar and salt, keeping them on opposite sides of the pan (to avoid interfering with yeast activation).
Make a small well in the flour (without reaching the liquid layer) and add the active dry yeast into the well.
Place the breadmaker pan into the machine and select the 'Sweet Bread' cycle, setting the crust color to 'Light' or your preference.
Start the machine and let it automatically knead, rise, and bake the brioche loaf.
Once the cycle is completed, remove the pan from the machine and let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Carefully turn out the loaf onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing.
