Ingredients
Mediterranean brioche
- 4 cup flour
- 2 tablespoon sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 12 gram instant yeast
- 1 cup warm milk
- 120 gram butter, melted
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup store-bought or homemade onion jam
- 75 gram sundried tomatoes, chopped
- 100 gram feta cheese, crumbled
- 100 gram black olives, sliced (optional)
Method
Mediterranean brioche
- 1In a large bowl combine 1½ cups of the flour, the sugar, salt and instant yeast then mix.
- 2Add the warm milk and melted butter and stir in. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber scraper then cover and set aside until doubled in size – approximately 40 minutes.
- 3While the dough is rising, line a 12-hole muffin pan with squares of non-stick baking paper or muffin cases.
- 4When the mixture has doubled in size, whisk in the eggs one at a time using a fork, then the remaining 2½ cups of flour. Turn onto a floured board and knead until smooth, dusting with flour as needed to prevent sticking.
- 5Roll the dough out to a rectangle approximately 40cm x 30cm. Spread with the onion jam, then scatter on the chopped sundried tomatoes, feta and olives, if using.
- 6Roll up the dough into a long roll, and slice into 12 even slices. Place the slices cut-side up in the prepared muffin pans, and leave to rise until doubled – approximately 25 minutes.
- 7Bake in a preheated oven at 190°C for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Cool and store in an airtight container.
