Description
A delightful Raspberry Swirl Brioche Loaf that combines the richness of brioche with the sweet tartness of raspberry jam.
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
- ½ cup whole milk, warmed to about 110°F
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup raspberry jam
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- Add the eggs and softened butter to the yeast mixture, whisking until well combined.
- Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and roll it out into a rectangle about ½ inch thick. Spread the raspberry jam evenly over the dough.
- Starting from one long side, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seams to seal.
- Place the rolled dough into a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan, seam side down. Cover and let it rise again for about 30-45 minutes, until puffy.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the loaf for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the dough.
- You can substitute the raspberry jam with any fruit jam or preserves of your choice, such as strawberry or apricot, for a different twist.
