Tips for the best Nutella brioche

– Make sure your yeast is alive and the water is not too hot to activate it. If you use an expired yeast, the brioche will not be fluffy and will not grow in size.

– Allow the dough to rest for 1h 30 minutes the first time and the second time 30 more minutes.

– Do not overfill the brioche with chocolate, if you add to much chocolate it will spill everywhere.

– Don’t rush the baking time by changing the temperature, if it cooks at a really high temperature it will cook the outside too fast and be completely raw on the inside. It will also crack the bread because of a temperature shock. I like to bake at 345F 170C for the best results.

– To give it that beautiful color make sure you beat one egg, mix it with heavy cream and then, make sure to brush the bread with this mixture right before baking.

– For a shiny appearance, brush the bread with some butter.

– If you don’t think you can finish the brioches the same day make sure to freeze them once they cool down a little and then just reheat them before eating, this will make the brioche taste like fresh every time.

Questions for Nutella brioche

can instant or fresh yeast be used instead of active dry yeast?

Yes to both of them. You don’t need to activate them before using. When using fresh yeast i recommend you don’t add it at the begging of kneading if it’s too hot because it starts working too fast and you don’t want the dough to start proofing while its kneading.

For instant yeast, you’ll need 3 grams.

For fresh yeast, you’ll need 8 grams.

Here is the link to the website i used to know the exact measurements of yeast you’ll need for this recipe, https://www.omnicalculator.com/food/yeast-converter

Can i make the dough the day before?

Yes, you can make the dough and allow it to proof in the fridge, the next day make sure to leave it in the counter for about 1h and then you can start shaping it.

What should i do if my dough doens’t rise?

Ensure that the yeast is fresh and not expired and that the water was at the right temperature. If you are using active dry yeast, if the water is too cold it doesn’t start working and if the water is too hot it will kill the yeast from excess heat.

This is how you want you sponge mixture to look like before using it

If the yeast mixture looked like this but the dough didn’t rise it could be an environment temperature issue. The dough needs to be in a warm environment to facilitate rising, if it’s in a cold place it will take so many hours to rise.

How should i Store leftover brioche?

Homemade breads tend to get dry really fast because they don’t have any preservatives so the best thing you can do to store your leftover Nutella stuffed brioche is freezing it.

Bake the brioche and separate the ones you think you and your family will eat that same day, the rest allow them to cool down a little and them put them in ziplock bags and freeze adding the date and name of product to the bag for easier identification. Whenever you wanna eat a brioche, put it in the microwave and it will taste fresh.

How can i still make this recipe if im allergic to nuts?

You have different options, you can try to find a chocolate spread to use that doesn’t have any nuts, allergy friendly or you can use chocolate ( nuts free )
