In a large mixing bowl, combine bread flour, salt, and instant yeast. Mix well to distribute the ingredients evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, sugar substitute, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Using a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and mix on low speed until a rough dough forms.
Increase the speed to medium, and slowly add in the softened butter, a few pieces at a time, ensuring each piece is fully incorporated before adding the next.
Continue to knead the dough at medium speed for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth, elastic, and slightly sticky.
Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat all sides. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 to 1.5 hours.
Punch down the dough to release the air and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, shape each piece into a smooth ball, and place them in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
Cover the pan with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise again until doubled, about 45 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F).
Once risen, gently brush the top of the dough with a little beaten egg for a shiny finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is a deep golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped at the bottom.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice the brioche and toast as desired. Serve with your favorite spreads or toppings.
