these looked and sounded so good... there is no servings amount and the cooking time is for the smallest size... the recipe give several sizes that you can make... I loved the littlest ... and anything that has lemon in the title catches my eye. Read more ... the recipe and photo are courtesy of king Arthur Ingredients:
3/4 cup lukewarm water |
2 large eggs |
1/2 cup butter |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 teaspoons instant yeast |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/8 teaspoon lemon oil |
1 to 2 tablespoons lemon zest |
4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
filling (optional) |
1/2 cup whipped cream, devon cream, or lemon crème fraiche |
1/2 cup raspberry jam |
Directions:
1. 1) Mix and knead together all of the dough ingredients, by hand, mixer or bread machine, to make a soft, smooth dough. If kneading by hand, this will take awhile due to the amount of butter in the dough.
2. 2) Allow the dough to rise, covered, for about 1 hour, or until it's quite puffy.
3. 3) Divide the dough into 20 pieces (about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 ounces each) to make mini brioche; or 12 pieces to make larger individual brioche in muffin cups; or 2 pieces for large paper brioche pans.
4. 4) Roll the dough into balls, and place into brioche papers or greased muffin cups
5. 5) Cover and allow to rise until doubled and puffy.
6. 6) Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 350°F.
7. 7) Bake the brioche for 14 to 18 minutes (for small brioche); 18 to 20 minutes (for muffin-sized brioche); or 20 to 25 minutes for two large brioche. The finished bread will be golden brown. Remove from the oven, and cool completely.
8. 8) To fill small brioche, cut the tops off the cooled brioche. Fill with a teaspoonful of raspberry jam and whipped cream, Devon cream, or lemon crème fraîche. Place tops back on and dust with confectioners' sugar.
