Categories     Bread

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups milk
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 tbsp active dry yeast
6 cups flour (may need more, depending on the brand)
6 large eggs
1 tbsp vanilla extract
200 grams unsalted butter
1 egg
3 tbsp water

Steps:

  • Prepare ingredients for brioche bread.
  • Combine the warm (110°F) milk with yeast, sugar, and two cups of flour. Whisk the ingredients together. Cover the bowl with a towel and set it aside in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs together. Add eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the dough mixture. Whisk in the remaining flour in small portions.
  • Knead the dough by hand or in a stand mixer until it becomes elastic. This will take about 10-15 minutes. Cover the dough and let it rise for about an hour.
  • Remove the dough from the bowl and divide it into two even pieces. Next, divide each piece into three pieces. Roll each piece out into a long rope. Connect the ends of the ropes together and braid them.
  • Place braided brioche on a lined baking sheet, cover it with a towel, and let it rise for 30 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and water to create the egg wash. Brush the brioche with the egg wash.
  • Bake the brioche at 350°F for about 30 minutes or until the bread is golden brown.

Time 3h50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 ¾ cups warm water
2 tablespoons honey
¾ teaspoon active dry yeast
3 ½ cups whole wheat flour, or more as needed, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Mix the warm water, honey, and yeast in a stand-mixer bowl until mixture becomes foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Add half the whole wheat flour, olive oil, and salt to the mixture. Mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until incorporated. Let sit for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Mix with a dough hook attachment on low speed, slowly adding the remaining whole wheat flour, increasing the speed to high. Mix on high until the batter is combined and not sticking to the sides of the bowl, about 7 minutes. Cover the bowl with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Flour a surface to work the dough.
  • Place the dough onto the floured work surface and shape into a loaf. Use more flour if necessary. Place into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Let shaped dough sit in a warm place until it has risen over the top of the pan, about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top of the loaf sounds hollow when tapped, about 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 to 20 minutes before removing from the pan and transferring to a wire rack. Let cool an additional hour before slicing; otherwise it will feel doughy.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use high-quality whole wheat flour. Look for flour that is finely milled and has a light, creamy color.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can make the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it for at least 10 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
  • The dough will be sticky, so be sure to grease your hands or use a dough scraper to work with it.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1-2 hours.
  • When shaping the dough, be gentle and don't overwork it. Otherwise, the brioche will be tough.
  • Bake the brioche until it is golden brown and cooked through. This will take about 25-30 minutes.
  • Let the brioche cool slightly before serving.

Conclusion:

This quick and easy whole wheat brioche recipe is a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. The brioche is light and fluffy, with a slightly sweet flavor. It is perfect for toast, sandwiches, or French toast. With just a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can enjoy this delicious bread at home.
