Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup milk, warmed slightly
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoon (1 x 7g sachet) instant yeast
  • 3 egg yolks, lightly beaten
  • 250 gram flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 75 gram butter, slightly softened
Filling
  • 2 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Method

  • 1
    Combine the milk and sugar in a small bowl. Sprinkle the yeast onto the milk and stir to mix. Leave to stand for a few minutes until the yeast is foamy. Stir in the egg yolks.
  • 2
    Place the liquid ingredients in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook. Add the flour and salt. Turn the mixer onto slow speed and mix for 15 minutes. The dough will make a slapping sound on the side of the bowl when it is ready.
  • 3
    Incorporate the butter little by little into the dough and mix until all the butter is blended. Scrape the butter from the sides of the bowl with a spatula if needed. The dough should be shiny and smooth and come away from the sides of the bowl.
  • 4
    Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl. Cover and leave it to rise in a warm, draught-free place for 2 hours.
  • 5
    Knock back the dough and knead it briefly. Roll out the dough into a 20 x 28cm rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Brush the surface with melted butter.
  • 6
    Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle the mixture evenly over the dough. Roll up the dough tightly from the longer side to form a scroll. Cut the scroll into 4cm slices and place in lightly greased, large muffin tins. Brush with the remaining melted butter.
  • 7
    Leave to rise again until the brioche are puffy, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180ºC. Bake the brioche in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are light golden brown.
