How to Make Milk Brioche?

  1. Dissolve the Yeast: Start by dissolving the instant yeast with the sugar in the warm milk, whisking continuously.
  2. Initiate the Dough: Add 15 grams of the flour to the milk mixture. Leave it to rest for ten minutes, allowing the yeast to activate.
  3. Add Wet Ingredients: Incorporate the whole egg, followed by the butter into the mixture. Mix well until you have a homogeneous paste.
  4. Prepare the Flour: Sift the remaining flour into a large bowl. Add the salt to the flour.
  5. Combine: Pour the milk and yeast mixture into the bowl with the flour and salt. Stir everything together with a spatula until well combined.
  6. Let the Dough Rise: Cover the dough with a cloth and leave it to rise until it doubles in size. This is when the magic happens, and the dough begins to develop its fluffy texture.
  7. Shape the Brioche: Once risen, take the dough and place it onto a floured work surface. Divide it into 5 portions – two small and three large.
  8. Forming the Buns: Shape each portion into balls and cover them with a cloth. Let them rest for an additional fifteen minutes.
  9. Create the Buns: Flatten one of the balls into a thin oval disk and roll it up from the longer side. Place it in a greased baking mold. Repeat this process with the remaining dough.
  10. Final Rise: Cover the shaped buns and let them rest for another half an hour.
  11. Preheat the Oven: Turn on the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (approximately 350 degrees Fahrenheit).
  12. Egg Wash: Brush the milk brioche buns with the beaten egg yolk for that golden, glossy finish.
  13. Bake: Bake the brioche in the preheated oven for fifteen minutes or until they’re golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.

Once baked, these milk brioche buns are a delightful way to start any morning or to enjoy as a mid-day snack. Serve them warm with a pat of butter, a dollop of jam, or simply savor their plain goodness. This recipe not only delivers in taste but also offers a moment of pure culinary joy. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced baker, the results will be equally satisfying. Give your breakfast a gourmet touch with these homemade milk brioches and watch them become a new favorite!
