Zojirushi Bread Machine Brioche Recipes

BREAD MACHINE BRIOCHE RECIPE

Steps:

• Combine 1/3 C of milk and 1 T of flour in a microwave-safe container. Whisk until smooth. Microwave this liquid paste mixture for 20 seconds on High. Remove and stir. Place back into the microwave for 10-20 seconds or however long it takes to turn the mixture into a thick "gravy" consistency. Let this mixture cool to room temperature. Pour into the bread machine pan.
• Add 3 eggs, 2 T granulated sugar, 1¼ t salt, 12 T chopped butter, 2-3/4 C bread flour, and 2 t instant yeast to the bread maker pan.
• Select the DOUGH cycle and push START. After 2minutes, open the lid of your bread machine. Make sure the paddles are engaged and the dough is gathering into clumps or a ball.
• Check the dough again after 8-10 minutes. If the dough is too slack, add additional flour one tablespoon at a time, letting the dough absorb the flour before adding more. The dough should be thick enough to hold its shape, stick to the sides, then pull away. This dough should be stickier than the average bread dough. But it must be firm enough for the bread machine blades to get traction as they knead the dough.
• During the last 5 minutes of the kneading phase, the dough should be smooth, shiny, and pulling away from the sides. Allow the DOUGH cycle to complete. The dough should be doubled in size. If the ambient temperature is chilly in your kitchen, you may need to allow the dough to rise longer until doubled.
• Gently release the dough from the sides to remove some of the air.
• Cover the bread machine bowl and place it into your refrigerator for 6-24 hours. (You can also transfer the dough to another bowl before placing it into the fridge.) Do not skip this part. If you don't have time for the chill, you might want to make another kind of bread.

BREAD MACHINE BRIOCHE

Steps:

• Add all ingredients except the butter to your bread machine in the order suggested by manufacturer and process on the basic bread cycle.
• Cut the butter into tablespoon size pieces.
• About 10 minutes before the end of your first kneading cycle, begin adding the butter, 1 tablespoon each minute.
• Do not rush it.
• Let the machine continue its process.
• After bread is baked and at the end of the entire cycle, let the brioche cool in the OPENED machine about 20 minutes.
• This will keep the sides firm while the center stays moist.
