Brioche Bread with Butter & Egg Yolk

I had a few egg yolks left over so decided to try my hand at a brioche. I was so surprised how delicious it turned out!!
These brioches are made with half the flour for french bread so are extra fluffy! Trehalose helps to protect the bread from drying out, so the brioches will be nice and fluffy, even after being left for a day or so! Recipe by Pu-kosan

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Beat the egg yolk well and mix with the cream and water.
- 2
Put all of the ingredients except for the butter in the bread maker and set it to the bread kneading course. Place the yeast according to the manufacturers instructions.
- 3
Add 1/3 of the butter 3 minutes after starting the course, then another 1/3 after a further 3 minutes and then the last 1/3 after another 3 minutes.
- 4
Leave everything in the bread maker until it's finished proofing.
- 5
Once proofed, take out the dough, and punch it down to get rid of the gas. Use a scraper to divide the dough into 12, moulding them into rounds. Each round should weigh around 45 g.
- 6
The butter can cause things to get a bit sticky so feel free to give the dough a dusting of flour if it needs it. Place the dough seam-side down and cover with a slightly damp cloth for 10 minutes.
- 7
Once the 10 minutes is up, turn each piece of dough seam up, press down and re-form into balls. Make a lump of the top by pressing down the top 1/4 of the dough with your little finger and rolling.
- 8
Make the lump quite narrow and put the dough into aluminium cups. Push the lump down gently to flatten a little. The butter will begin to melt here, so do this step as quickly as possible.
- 9
Proof for a second time in the oven for 35 - 45 minutes at 35℃. When the dough has expanded 1.5x the original size it's ready. The picture shows the dough after the second proofing.
- 10
Once proved, preheat the oven to 200℃. whilst the oven is heating up, glaze the dough with a mixture of water and beaten egg.
- 11
Bake for 12 minutes at 200℃. Please adjust the cooking time according to your oven. Once a nice golden colour, they're ready.
- 12
This is how they look inside when baked. The inside is really chewy, and a nice yellow color, and the smell is fantastic.

Brioche-style Pancake Mix Bread Brioche-style Pancake Mix Bread
I tried adding some leftover pancake mix and ended up with a soft, sweet, brioche-like bread, similar to that of our neighbourhood bakery. Brioche usually has plenty of butter, but by using coffee creamer I've reduce the butter.If you put the bread case itself on the scale to weight the ingredients, it cuts down on washing afterwards.About the coffee creamer: there's soy and milk-based types. Either is fine. However, the milk-based type is a bit richer and helps the bread expand, so I would suggest going with this. Recipe by Miashanmama cookpad.japan -
Brioche Bread Pudding with Caramel Sauce Brioche Bread Pudding with Caramel Sauce
My husband loves bread pudding, and while I have yet to pinpoint the exact awesomeness that is our favorite from a local bakery, I have tweaked various recipes I've come across to settle on this little gem that has become my husband's favorite that I have made. Lol.We know the bakery uses Brioche, so that is now what I use. The bread pudding portion of this is a hugely altered version of a Paula Deen bread pudding. Her recipe called for 2 cups of sugar in the custard to only 3 cups of cubed bread. Like, "WHAT THE WHAT?".The sauce is my version of a caramel sauce recipe I found by Ree Drummond (The Pioneer Woman). Together they made an incredibly delectable dish!You can add nuts and/or raisins if you choose, but we really prefer ours "pure", just bread, custard, and extra sauce. I truly hope you enjoy this as much as we do! StephieCanCook -

Crown Shaped Brioche Crown Shaped Brioche
I made this rather luxurious crown-shaped brioche as a birthday present for my father.When kneading the dough, if you add all the butter from the start, the bread will become stale faster. As the dough has more flour than butter, make sure that the butter melds, add the butter brought to room temperature in two batches. Recipe by La Land cookpad.japan -

Orange Peel & Chocolate Chip Brioche Orange Peel & Chocolate Chip Brioche
I made a whole bunch of candied orange peel from oranges so I decided to make a cake or bread! And since recently I really love chocolate with orange, I combined them both into a rich brioche dough to make a cake-like bread.You don't need to use a muffin tray; you can bake them in any shape or size you want.For the milk in brioche dough, the amount changes depending on the weight of the egg, so mix the ※ ingredients to make a total of 145g.If you don't have candied peel, you can use marmalade and chocolate chips. In that case, the dough will only be slightly sweet, so you can increase the amount of sugar if you want. The baking time and temperature should be adjusted to suit your own oven.
