Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 ml Whole milk
- 90 g Unsalted butter
- 3 large Eggs
- 400 g All-purpose flour
- 50 g Sugar
- 7 g Salt
- 7 g Instant yeast
Instructions
Remove the butter from the refrigerator and cut it into small cubes. Let it come to room temperature for easier mixing.
Add the ingredients into the breadmaker pan in the following order: milk, eggs, sugar, salt, flour, and the yeast. Ensure the yeast does not directly touch the salt.
Place the breadmaker pan into the machine and secure it properly.
Close the lid and select the 'Sweet Bread' setting or a similar brioche setting on your breadmaker. Choose the light or medium crust color option, depending on your preference.
Start the breadmaker and let the machine knead the dough. As the machine works, gradually add the cubed butter, one piece at a time, until fully incorporated.
Allow the breadmaker to complete the kneading, rising, and baking processes, as per the selected setting. This typically takes about 3 hours.
Once the breadmaker completes baking, carefully remove the pan using oven mitts (it will be very hot).
Allow the brioche to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then remove it and place it on a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve the brioche fresh, toasted, or as a base for French toast or bread pudding.
