BAKING YOUR OWN BRIOCHE TAKES A LITTLE EFFORT BUT IT IS SO WORTH IT. LIGHT AND BUTTERY WITH A PILLOWY INTERIOR. THE LEFTOVERS ARE PERFECT FOR FRENCH TOAST

Brioche is a type of French bread made from a dough enriched with butter and eggs, giving it a tender, moist crumb and dark golden crust. Brioche comes in all shapes and sizes––dinner buns, hamburger buns, loaves, plain or with savory/sweet fillings.

Homemade Brioche Bread is a yeast bread which requires a slow rise and an overnight cure in the refrigerator. It’s not a ton of hands-on time at all so don’t let the overnight rest deter you from making this heavenly loaf of bread.

And when you’re baking your French Brioche recipe the smell will reassure you that your work is going to pay off in a VERY big way. I thought my classic white bread was amazing but this brioche just squashed it…literally. It is off the charts amazing.
