Hi Donna,
Thank you for sharing. We would really like to know (if and when you try the sweet sourdough) how it turns out.

Enjoy your Holiday baking!

I may try to experiment with a stiff sweet sourdough starter in the future 🤔

It is one of the easiest enriched doughs I’ve ever made.

Hello Kathy,
Yes, you can use 1 teaspoon of instant dry yeast for this recipe.
250 grams of all-purpose flour is about 1 and a halve cups plus 1 tablespoon plus slightly over 1 and a halve teaspoons.

For more easy conversions see our page:

But we keep saying it: Scales are the only way to get it exactly right and consistent with every bake 🙂

I’m just wondering if you’ve ever tried it with olive oil instead of butter?

Thanks so much!

С трудом нашла ваш рецеп. В инете много рецептов, но даже по фото видно, что это не бриошь.Попробую испечь. Уверена, что будет очень вкусно, если получится. Спасибо, спасибо!

Yes, Bea, it is perfectly alright to use both for this recipe.
Good luck with the baking!

First I was told to buy French t45 for brioche, is that ok? That’s what I have. Second should I use the SAF GOLD instant yeast? Thanks so much!

Hello Ayako,
Thank you for your comment. Sorry we did not clarify, but for this and other recipes we all use conventional setting, unless we clearly state that we use convection, like with the croissant recipe. So we also use or mean the conventional setting almost all of the time. But we will go through our recipes and see where we need to make this more clear.
Thank you for that and happy baking!

I’m new to the site, and I was wondering if the temperatures in the recipe are for convection ovens. I saw the classic croissant recipe, and it has the temperatures for both, but not in this recipe. I also saw that you guys have a convection oven, so should I assume all the temperatures in your recipes are for convection ovens? I have a conventional oven.

Thanks!

Hello Charlotte,
Oh Yum! That is such a good variation on the theme. Going to try this myself as soon as the weather starts to cool down! Thank you for the inspiration 🙂

Just back again to say that last weekend I rolled the dough out into a rectangle, put a layer of creme pat on (using your recipe), sprinkled chocolate chips on, cut them out like pain aux raisins and baked. They turned out amazing! I love this brioche dough so much!

Marvelous! Glad we could help and this recipe was a success too.
Enjoy the brioches and the summer!

Hello Charlotte,
That is wonderful, so glad you had great success with this recipe.
Did you also see the mini version?
www.weekendbakery.com/posts...arl-sugar/
Yes, you can add chocolate in the first phase or you can sprinkle some on the dough when you do the stretching and folding and work it in that way.

Hope it will be great again!

I have bad thumbs and can’t knead much so this recipe was really helpful! If I wanted to put things in like chocolate chips, would I do that before the 24 hour rest in the fridge?

Thank you Maria,
We do not have the experience with this recipe of turning it into a sourdough version, so you would have to experiment with it.

Conversion is not straightforward and always depends on the steps of the recipe as each recipe is different and timing and times will be different. No matter what amount of sourdough you add, it will always take longer than the yeast recipe, so you have to adjust the timing and the steps. So you are basically making a new recipe.
So especially with 100% sourdough recipes we always advice to just find a good sourdough version that has already worked out amounts and timing for a good result.
Please let us know if and when you have made a successful sourdough version of this recipe, that would be very a good thing to share with other bakers too.

Enjoy your baking!
Marieke
