Ingredients
Scale
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
1 egg
1 cup strawberry cream (strawberries blended with cream and sugar)
1 egg (for egg wash)
Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
Activate the yeast by combining it with warm milk and a bit of sugar. Allow this mixture to sit for 5 minutes, or until it becomes bubbly and fragrant.
Whisk together the flour, remaining sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
Add the yeast mixture, softened butter, and one egg to the dry ingredients. Knead until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
Cover your dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface and cut it into smaller pieces.
Layer the cut pieces of dough in a greased bundt pan, filling the gaps with the strawberry cream.
Cover the bundt pan again and let the assembled dough rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the brioche for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
Brush the top with egg wash for a glossy finish and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
For the best rise, ensure your yeast is fresh and knead on a well-floured surface to prevent sticking.
